build(docker): pin setuptools 70 (#465)

Pin `setuptools` to the maximum version of 70 to allow working on Ubuntu
20.04 LTS based environments. (New versions of `setuptools` are not
compatible.)

Note that this fix is necessary only for the `maint-0.9` branches and
the REANA 0.9 release series. In `master` we have switched to Ubuntu
24.04 LTS based environments and Python 3.12 and no pinning is necessary
there.
