    tags(uses-deprecated-python-stdlib.tag): Add information of deprecation in PEP-632
    
    Quoting PEP 594:
    
    > At one point, distutils was mentioned in the same sentence as this
    > PEP. To avoid lengthy discussion and delay of the PEP, I decided against
    > dealing with distutils. Deprecation of the distutils package will be
    > handled by another PEP.
    
    Add a link and comment to PEP 632 to make this less confusing for users
    looking at the PEP and not seeing the distutil deprecation there.
