Subject: Remote dependency on distutils (#9125)

`distutils` is pretty much deprecated these days, and replaced with
`setuptools`. It's also annoying because it's you can't `pip install` it, and
it's hard to figure out which debian package we should depend on to make sure
it's there.

Since we only use it for a tiny function anyway, let's just vendor said
function into our codebase.
