sanity: check for more bits of Python

MJ: icu in master doesn't need distutils anymore, because icu 65.1 currently in
dunfell/master doesn't depend on python3-distutils anymore since:
https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/commit/b4d41b0561b6e8de38b99850ce0e4be8ef536bb1

but the icu-64.2 in zeus and openembedded-core/meta/recipes-core/ovmf/ovmf_git.bb
still need python3-distutils as described in:
http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2020-March/293984.html
