pythongh-95349: Hide a Distutils Warning Filter for test_check_c_globals (pythonGH-95837)

ericsnowcurrently · web-flow · commit 3ff6d9affb35 · 2022-08-09T16:04:05.000-07:00
Under certain build conditions, test_check_c_globals fails. This fix takes the same approach as we took for pythongh-84236 (via pythongh-20095). We'll be removing use of distutils in the c-analyzer at some point. Until then we'll hide the warning filter.
