Fix Python 3.12 build issues in thrift Python (#3276)
- Add pyproject.toml with setuptools build requirement for PEP 517 compliance
- Replace distutils imports with setuptools equivalents
- Use setuptools error names directly (CompileError, ExecError, PlatformError)
- Fix macOS header collision with ntohll/htonll macros in endian.h
- Add a matrix of MacOS versions (macos-15-intel, macos-14, macos-15,
macos-26)
- Add a matrix of non-EOL Python versions for testing
- Remove MSVC2015 from the test matrix (very old).
- Support MSVC2022, the latest in AppVeyor.
- Upgrade tornado, twisted, and zope.interface versions to the first
that support Python 3.12.
- Try to make the test_socket, RunClientServer, and TestServer tests less flaky.
This fixes the ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils' error
when building thrift with Python 3.12+.
