sphn-mocker incompatible with Python 3.12
When running sphn-mocker in an environment with Python 3.12, I run into the following error:
File "", line 1, in File "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/python@3.12/3.12.2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/importlib/init.py",
line 90, in import_module return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)

This is due to distutils
being removed in Python 3.12. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69919970/no-module-named-distutils-but-distutils-installed/76691103#76691103
Short term: It would be good to update the README
to communicate that sphn-mocker is compatible with Python 3.11 and below.
Long term: Update installation guide to account for the additional installation of setuptools
