bootstrap: remove dependency on system provided pip #61

Description

We should do a check for pip, as pip is not always present. If it's not present we have one of two options.

  1. Automatically execute python -m ensurepip.
  2. Error out, instructing user to install pip and hint at 1, since they may want to use distro specific installation.

Alternatively, virtualenv wheel should be usable without installation I think. That would make a cleaner approach.

  1. Download latest wheel.
  2. Insert wheel to site.
  3. Execute required commands.
