The following changes are required:
* add a new platform win-arm64
* replace the emulated compiler executable paths
* bump the linker base addressed as ARM64 requires more memory
this change might not be needed (investigation required)
On Windows 10 ARM64, VS compiler paths look like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual
Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.27.29110\bin\HostX86\ARM64\cl.exe
Note that the cl.exe for ARM64 is an x32 binary, which can run emulated
on Windows 10 ARM64 (it has builtin emulation for x32).
The rc.exe and mc.exe paths have to also be changed, as the initial
discovery has to be fixed.
Work in progress to remove the hardcoded bits and to change the path
query fixes to the proper location.

The distutils bdist_wininst command deprecated in Python 3.8 has been
removed. The distutils bidst_wheel command is now recommended to
distribute binary packages on Windows.
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py
* Remove PC/bdist_wininst/ project
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/wininst-*.exe programs
* Remove all references to bdist_wininst
macOS releases numbering has changed as of macOS 11 Big Sur. Previously, major releases were of the form 10.x, 10.x+1, 10.x+2, etc; as of Big Sur, they are now x, x+1, etc, so, for example, 10.15, 10.15.1, ..., 10.15.7, 11, 11.0.1, 11.1, ..., 12, 12.1, etc. Allow Python to build with single-digit deployment target values. Patch provided by FX Coudert.
On macOS system provided libraries are in a shared library cache
and not at their usual location. This PR teaches distutils to search
in the SDK, even if there was no "-sysroot" argument in
the compiler flags.

* Add support for macOS 11 and Apple Silicon (aka arm64)
As a side effect of this work use the system copy of libffi on macOS, and remove the vendored copy
* Support building on recent versions of macOS while deploying to older versions
This allows building installers on macOS 11 while still supporting macOS 10.9.
Fix test_copyreg when numpy is installed: test.pickletester now
saves/restores warnings.filters when importing numpy, to ignore
filters installed by numpy.
Add the save_restore_warnings_filters() function to the
test.support.warnings_helper module.
- Fix upload test on systems that blocks MD5
- Add SHA2-256 and Blake2b-256 digests based on new Warehous and twine
specs.

distutils.tests now saves/restores warnings filters to leave them
unchanged. Importing tests imports docutils which imports
pkg_resources which adds a warnings filter.
It is possible to use either '-isysroot /some/path' (with a space) or
'-isysroot/some/path' (no space in between). Support both forms in
places where special handling of -isysroot is done, rather than just
the first form.

Add --with-platlibdir option to the configure script: name of the
platform-specific library directory, stored in the new sys.platlitdir
attribute. It is used to build the path of platform-specific dynamic
libraries and the path of the standard library.
It is equal to "lib" on most platforms. On Fedora and SuSE, it is
equal to "lib64" on 64-bit systems.

Reimplement distutils.spawn.spawn() function with the subprocess
module.
setup.py now uses a basic implementation of the subprocess module if
the subprocess module is not available: before required C extension
modules are built.
When checking `setup.py` and when the `author` field was provided, but
the `author_email` field was missing, erroneously a warning message was
displayed that the `author_email` field is required.
The specs do not require the `author_email`field:
https://packaging.python.org/specifications/core-metadata/#author
The same is valid for `maintainer` and `maintainer_email`.
The warning message has been adjusted.

Provides a richer platform tag for AIX that we expect to be sufficient for PEP 425
binary distribution identification. Any backports to earlier Python versions will be
handled via setuptools.
Patch by Michael Felt.
test_distutils.test_build_ext() is now able to remove the temporary
directory on Windows: don't import the newly built C extension ("xx")
in the current process, but test it in a separated process.
bdist_wininst depends on MBCS codec, unavailable on non-Windows,
and bdist_wininst have not worked since at least Python 3.2, possibly
never on Python 3.
Here we document that bdist_wininst is only supported on Windows,
and we mark it unsupported otherwise to skip tests.
Distributors of Python 3 can now safely drop the bdist_wininst .exe files
without the need to skip bdist_wininst related tests.
It is also possible to link against a library or executable with a
statically linked libpython, but not both with the same DLL. In fact
building a statically linked python is currently broken on Cygwin
for other (related) reasons.
The same problem applies to other POSIX-like layers over Windows
(MinGW, MSYS) but Python's build system does not seem to attempt
to support those platforms at the moment.
On Unix, C extensions are no longer linked to libpython.
It is now possible to load a C extension built using a shared library
Python with a statically linked Python.
When Python is embedded, libpython must not be loaded with
RTLD_LOCAL, but RTLD_GLOBAL instead. Previously, using RTLD_LOCAL, it
was already not possible to load C extensions which were not linked
to libpython, like C extensions of the standard library built by the
"*shared*" section of Modules/Setup.
distutils, python-config and python-config.py have been modified.
bpo-28552, bpo-7774: Fix distutils.sysconfig if sys.executable is
None or an empty string: use os.getcwd() to initialize project_base.
Fix also the distutils build command: don't use sys.executable if
it's evaluated as false (None or empty string).
shutil.which() and distutils.spawn.find_executable() now use
os.confstr("CS_PATH") if available instead of os.defpath, if the PATH
environment variable is not set.
Don't use os.confstr("CS_PATH") nor os.defpath if the PATH
environment variable is set to an empty string to mimick Unix 'which'
command behavior.
Changes:
* find_executable() now starts by checking for the executable in the
current working directly case. Add an explicit
"if not path: return None".
* Add tests for PATH='' (empty string), PATH=':' and for PATHEXT.
