gnu: Remove python-setuptools and python2-setuptools from inputs (part 2)

This patch contains the changes where removing setuptools from the inputs
affected some code-lines beside.

* gnu/packages/admin.scm (ansible): Remove all [inputs], [native-inputs] and
  [propagated-inputs] where python-setuptools or python2-setuptools are the
  sole entries. Remove python-setuptools and python2-setuptools listed on a
  line by its own from [inputs], [native-inputs] and [propagated-inputs].
