Use looseversion instead of deprecated distutils

[eramongodb]

This PR addresses the following warning observed when running the make_release.py script:

etc/make_release.py:42: DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential alternatives
  from distutils.version import LooseVersion

This is a followup to #1280 and #1244, which applied a <3.12 Python version restriction to workaround the aforementioned removal of the distutils package. This PR proposes using the looseversion package instead to obtain LooseVersion. This package was already added to the list of make_release.py dependencies in #1244 but was left unused (possibly overlooked?).

This permits the removal of the Python 3.12 version restriction, which in turn revealed the following warning:

etc/make_release.py:593: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\w'
  token_re = re.compile('^(?:Token - )?(?P<tok>\w{40}).*$')

This is apparently due to 3.12 promoting unrecognized escape sequences to a SyntaxWarning (and eventually a SyntaxError). I believe a simple addition of an escape \ -> \\ is sufficient in this case.

These changes (should) allow for compatibility with Python 3.10 through Python 3.13. ("Should" as the full script is not yet tested without --dry-run.)

Suggested change

	token_re = re.compile('^(?:Token - )?(?P<tok>\\w{40}).*$')
	token_re = re.compile(r'^(?:Token - )?(?P<tok>\w{40}).*$')

Consider using a raw string to treat the backslash as a literal character. Raw strings appear frequently in https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html.
