[Twisted-Python] INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: twisted.python.dist renamed to twisted.python._setup

[Adi Roiban]

Hi,

I would like to remove twisted.python.dist as a public API without
following the 1 year deprecation processes.

The module has a comment which informs people not to use it outside of
Twisted, but I think it should be private module instead.

The ticket is here https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8622
The PR is here https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/467
The branch is here
https://github.com/twisted/twisted/tree/8622-setup-coverage

This is part of the setup.py cleanup effort for having most of the setup.py
code outside of setup.py itself so that we can test it as part of the
automated test suite.

twisted.python.dist3 was kept as a private API as it is already used  by
https://github.com/habnabit/twisted-depgraph

Please let me know if you are using twisted.python.dist outside of Twisted
and are against this change or if you approve it.

Thanks!
