I need to copy the xxmodule.c file in other tests, so I moved the
support code to distutils.tests.support and improved it:
- don’t skip when run from the Lib/distutils/tests directory
- use proper skip machinery instead of custom print/return/test suite
fiddling.
I also took out the fixup_build_ext function, which is needed for tests
to pass on Unix shared builds and Windows debug builds.
Finally, I cleaned up a few things:
- don’t remove directories in tearDown when the parent class’ tearDown
has already registered the directories for removal
- simplify restoration of sys.path
- remove a few unused names found by pyflakes.
