The existing section about sdist in userguide/distribution seems to have duplicated content when compared to another section in userguide/miscellaneous. We can combine these two sections and simplify the documentation.

Summary of changes

  • Consolidate text about sdist contents and MANIFEST.in into a single place.
  • De-emphasize distutils and the history of setuptools (new users might not know about it, which would make them less confuse).
