This started as a cleanup to a whoopsie in #2868 (thanks @hroncok).

Revert many parts of our wheel removal to support Python 3.8. Pip 25.1 (which understands that wheel is not needed) is not supported on Python 3.8, so we continue to ship pip 25.0.1 for Python 3.8, and provide wheel.

This contains a partial revert of commit db1d9fc. Once support for Python 3.8 has been removed, it can be reverted again.

…to be installed, but it isn't"

This reverts commit c93d2a6.
