According to PEP 632 [1], distutils is obsolete and removed after Python
v3.12. Setuptools is the replacement.
There is a migration guide at [2] that suggests the following
replacements:
{distutils.core => setuptools}.setup
{distutils => setuptools}.command
distutils.dep_util => setuptools.modified
Prior to setuptools v69.0.0 [3], `newer_group` was exposed through
the now-deprecated `setuptools.dep_util` instead of
`setuptools.modified`.
Rather than updating distutils.core.Extension, I remove it as it does
not appear to be used.

I'm not deeply familiar with the Python ecosystem, so it'd be good to
have this patch reviewed by someone who is.
I needed these changes to get pynfs to build on an Arch linux system
with Python version 3.13.1.
I also tested on an AlmaLinux 8.10 system with Python version 3.6.8 and
setuptools version 59.6.0, and it built succesfully for me there.
