Subject: [PATCH] swc-installation-test-2.py: Prefer distro to
 platform.linux_distribution

platform.linux_distribution was deprecated in 2015 to be removed in
Python 3.7 [1,2].  And it may not exist at all on some Python builds
(Manjaro's [3]?).  Prefer distro (the replacement PyPI package [4,5])
on Linux if the user already has it installed.

If we can't find a distro/version, use '*' for generic help-URL
matching.  And silently skip distro/version information in
print_system_info.
