Jason Ish 9a1d6af858 python: install without distutils
Instead of using distutils/setuptools for installing the Python code,
just install it into our own Python directory.

Distutils is being removed from Python, and setuptools doesn't work well
when trying to install into your own location. For our usage its just
simpler to install with make.

In addition to removing the configure check for distutils, also remove
the check for pyyaml. This lets the user install pyyaml after Suricata
is installed, and Suricata-Update does handle this case gracefully.

Issue: #5313

Jason Ish 7e06e765f3 python: fixes for out of tree build
Autoconf/automake and python setup.py don't play that well
together with out of tree builds.

Makes suricatasc not an autoconf input file, instead use the
defaults module that is already being created.

In the case of an out of tree build, copy the generated defaults.py
to the build directory manually.
