Python 3.12 removes distutils. In setup.py, we import setuptools but fall back to distutils, which is fine. But in lib/portage/tests/runTests.py, we unconditionally import it which falls flat w/ 3.12: ``` $ python3.12 /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/portage/tests/runTests.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/portage/tests/runTests.py", line 14, in <module> from distutils.dir_util import copy_tree ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils' ```

When building via meson-python, the man pages and logrotate config are no longer included as there seems little point.

Noticed when looking at bug #906991 which I'd forgot about.
