[PATCH] py-smbus/setup.py: use setuptools instead of distutils

[Ross Burton]

As per [1], distutils is deprecated in Python 3.10 and will be removed
entirely in Python 3.12.

As setuptools is essentially an enhanced version of distutils, it's
trivial to port to that.

Is setuptools available in python 2.7? For now, py-smbus can be built
for either python2 or python3, and I would like to maintain that
possibility.

Thanks,
