Unable to prepare pyproject.toml building Aider from source code

[V4G4X]

Issue

I followed these steps:

1. Cloned Aider
2. Created a new Python env using python3 -m venv .aider-dev-env
3. Sourced into that python env source .aider-dev-env/bin/activate
4. Run python -m pip install -e .

From there it would go ahead and fail at this point.
