Joe McDonnell 5b4afb4f8f IMPALA-13368: Fixup Redhat detection for Python >= 3.8
Python 3.8 removed the platform.linux_distribution() function which is
currently used to detect Redhat. This switches to using the 'distro'
package, which implements the same functionality across different
Python versions. Since Redhat 6 is no longer supported, this removes
the detection of Redhat 6 and associated skip logic.

Testing:
 - Ran a core job

To install new packages:

1) Add your package to deps/requirements.txt, or deps/compiled-requirements.txt if the
   the package needs a C/C++ compiler to build . You should specify the version number
   using the "foo == x.y.z" notation so future upgrades can be done automatically.
2) Run deps/download_requirements, it will download the package to the deps dir.
3) Run the "impala-python" command, this should detect that requirements.txt changed and
   automatically rebuild the virtualenv.
4) Now in the python prompt, you should be able to import the new module.

To upgrade a package:

1) Edit deps/requirement.txt to use the version you need.
2) Go to step 2 above.
