python: Make it compatible with python3.12

Daniel Garcia Moreno requested to merge danigm/libxml2:pyproject.toml into master

Python 3.12 removes distutils so it's mandatory to use setuptools with python >= 3.12.

This patch prints a message when trying to run the setup.py script with a python >= 3.12 without setuptools and try to use the setuptools import by default.

This patch also creates a new file, pyproject.toml [1], to prepare for building in modern systems.
