summary:
  Close #20757: return success for skipped pip uninstall

The 3.4rc2 Windows uninstaller would fail if pip had been updated
to a version that didn't match the version installed by ensurepip.
This skip is no longer treated as an error, so an updated pip ends
up being handled like any other pip installed package and is left
alone by the CPython uninstaller.
