[issue41282] Deprecate and remove distutils

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon <brett at python.org> added the comment:

FYI PEP 387 (which I expect will be accepted once I catch up from vacation) specified deprecations are to be public for two releases before removal or approval from the SC for a shorter cycle.

So if distutils is deprecated in 3.10 then it can be removed in 3.12 or you can ask the SC for an exemption to do it in 3.11.
