Use setuptools for setup.py

Changes proposed in this pull request:

  • Use setuptools for setup.py

This allows building of a wheel, the standard prebuilt distribution file in python. setuptools is widely recommended in the python community over the older, but fully builtin distutils, providing more information and flexibility.

For what it is worth, distutils is actually deprecated in the upcoming python 3.10 release and will be removed from a future version.
