The distutils package is deprecated and scheduled to be removed in
Python 3.12.

When building the SELinux userspace we currently get warnings like the following:
<string>:1: DeprecationWarning: The distutils.sysconfig module is deprecated, use sysconfig instead
<string>:1: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential alternatives

I am not a Python expert, but everything seems to work with these patches.
I would appreciate other people testing this and any Python experts to let
me know if this is the right way of replacing distutils.

v2: Use sysconfig.get_path('purelib'... when original used
    get_python_lib(prefix=... and use sysconfig.get_path('platlib'...
    when original used get_python_lib(plat_specific=1, prefix=...
