WIP pactivate: proposed fix for Debian Python 3.10 pkg w/o distutils

*** Tests (all manual so far):

- Ubuntu 22.04 / python3 3.10 / NO python3-distutils:   ** problem fixed
- Ubuntu 22.04 / python3 3.10 / WITH python3-distutils: ** still working
- Debian 11 / python3 3.10 / WITH python3-distutils:    ** still working
- Debian 11 / python3 3.10 / WITHOUT python3-distutils: ** ok error msg

*** Bugs in previous code:

- Deb 11 w/o python3-distutils fails to install bootstrap pip, prints a
  message, and should stop, but instead goes on with "Installing
  bootstrap virtualenv".
- Also separate commit to add commented-out "head-of-main" thing below.

*** Changes since last good commit (some need to be moved to other commits)

- pactivate:
  - Add commented-out "head of main" package for virtualenv
    - XXX move to a separate commit
  - add DEB_PYTHON_INSTALL_LAYOUT workaround
- cont-test:
  - remove the debugging
  - XXX keep a check for pactivate failure:
      (. ./$pactivate) || fail "pactivate failed: return code $?"
  - XXX keep large comment about system python 3.10.x

*** Stuff to document

    print(sysconfig.get_default_scheme())
