1898817 - Migrate various `distutils` usages in first-party python modules

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, task, P3)

Description

[Alex Hochheiden [:ahochheiden] (needinfo? me)]

Not really sure what product to file this under, since there's several usages in several different modules, and I'd rather not raise a new bug for each one.

Attachment: Bug 1898817 - Add custom `copy_tree_update` to replace `distutils.dir_util.copy_tree` r?#mozperftest-reviewers

We can't use shutil.copy_tree here, since we need the update=True
functionality implemented by the distutils variant, but not by the
shutil one. This looks like the only place in the repo we use this
functionality, so it seems fine to implement an equivalent ourselves
here directly.
