[issue33089] Add multi-dimensional Euclidean distance function to the math module

For the record, let me register my objection here. I'm not convinced by adding math.dist, and am surprised that this was committed. Almost all the discussion in this issue was about adding multi-argument hypot, which seems like an obviously useful building block. dist seems like a specialised function, and I don't think it belongs in the math module.
