Summary: Faster startup by distutils diet

Initial Comment:
site.py imports get_platform from distutils.utils. This results in 
importing of some other modules not used by the get_platform 
function such as re. 
 
This patch moves get_platform to a separate module and speeds 
up  ' python -c "raise SystemExit"  ' by about 20%

That's right.  I've been fooled by this decoy before :-).

This only affects an uninstalled Python build, right?
