Replace distutils with setuptools

[parr0tr1ver]

Operating system: Linux wxPython version & source: Python version & source: 3.11

Description of the problem: In Python 3.10 and 3.11, distutils will be formally marked as deprecated. And in Python 3.12, distutils will no longer be installed by make install or any of the first-party distribution according to pep-0632.

Is there a schedule to replace distutils with setuptools, please? Thanks.

I think, this would solve the issue: https://github.com/wxWidgets/Phoenix/pull/2085

The plan is to progressively reduce the use of distutils. The first step is here: #2164
