Draft: Updates for python 3.12 and gcc14 in AnalysisBase

This MR is based on the not yet committed changes of MR !1113 (merged) and contains the updates for python 3.12 and gcc14 in AnalysisBase.

Notes:

• distutils has been removed from python 3.12 but an alternative is available in the updated version 69.5.1 of setuptools. See also https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/deprecated/distutils-legacy.html
• Had to patch setup.py in numpy due the distutils changes
• XRootD still has the python binding issue as mentioned in !1113 (comment 8146401)
• Added a patch for davix to compile with gcc14

Let's see how to CI performs.
