2.27.2: awscli uses deprecated `pep517`

[kloczek]

Describe the bug

Note from https://pypi.org/project/pep517/

Deprecated high-level
For now, pep517 also contains higher-level functions which install the build dependencies into a temporary environment and build a wheel/sdist using them. This is a rough implementation, e.g. it does not do proper build isolation. The PyPA build project is recommended as an alternative, although it’s still quite young in October 2020. This layer of functionality in pep517 is now deprecated, but won’t be removed for some time, as there is code relying on it.

Expected Behavior

build should be used instead pep517.

Current Behavior

Hi @kloczek, thanks for reaching out. This will require updating our dependency on build to a more recent version, but this should be doable once we do.

Could you talk about your use case and if this is a blocker in any way? Thanks!

[kloczek]

Many Linux distros already abandoned package pep517 python module so that module is no longer even legacy module.
In other words in such cases building aws-cli is no longer possible.
