Issue #, if available: #10037
Description of changes:
In #9552, we removed the code that removed .dist-info directories when building the AWS CLI executable. This was done for
prompt-toolkit, which needed its directory to resolve__version__.Now, this PR adds back the removal code with a carve out for
prompt-toolkit. This should avoid the .dist-info forwheelbeing included from the internal build system, which will avoid false-positives from scanners.By submitting this pull request, I confirm that you can use, modify, copy, and redistribute this contribution, under the terms of your choice.
