I am in the process of updating the documentation at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BEAM/Python+Tips related to
setup.py/pyproject.toml changes, but yes you can't call setup.py directly
because it might fail due to the lack of presence of beam python's build
time dependencies.

With regards to other files(eg:protos), we will follow the similar behavior
as before(generating proros using `gen_protos.py`).
