We cannot skip installing providers, but this causes problems when installing airflow in editable mode, because providers are in two places - in airflow sources and in provider packages. This change removes installed provider packages when airflow is installed in editable mode to mitigate the problem. This way, there is no need to use INSTALL_PROVIDERS_FROM_SOURCES variable when installing in editable mode. We still need to keep INSTALL_PROVIDERS_FROM_SOURCES for cases when non-editable mode is used. In this way one can easily install curent version of provider packages locally with pip install and have the latest sources of both airflow and providers installed. <!-- Thank you for contributing!
