patch_dist carried a docstring that restated its comment and ran past 120 characters; the reason and link now share one comment. The PyPy link says why the shared libraries are copied.

Two links in code comments were dead. 📝 The
patch_distdocstring pointed at the distutils configuration file section of the Python docs, which went away with distutils, so it now links to the Python 3.11 copy where the section still exists. The PyPy shared library comment pointed at a Bitbucket issue, and PyPy now tracks the same issue at pypy/pypy#1922.Only comments change, so runtime behavior stays the same.
