    Drop dependency on distutils
    
    Python 3.x no longer includes distutils by default...
    
      https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/26099
    
    This is perfectly fine. We only used it to check if pip
    or apt-get was installed. We should be using stem for
    this anyway. I already dropped our dependency on distutils
    in stem for this reason...
