python3: Use _sysconfigdata.py to initialize distutils.sysconfig

Porting patch from
<https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/409482251b06fe75c4ee56e85ffbb4b23d934159>
to use _sysconfigdata.py to initialize distutils.sysconfig.

This patch makes that distutils.sysconfig doesn't need config-*/Makefile
in libdir any more. Next we can move it from python3-misc to python3-dev
package.
