In cases like #2247 when requires_dist value is not available in the PyPI API response, we fallback to to retrieving the first wheel entry for metadata parsing. This can lead to misleading log messages and potentially, incorrect metadata.

We should improve this by filtering for first available wheel that matches any constraints as best as feasible before arbitrary fallback.

Note: This is especially misleading when downloads take a long time and it gives the illusion of the application being stuck.
