`bdist_wheel.dist_info_dir` seems to have broken building some projects (e.g. pyyaml).

          This seems to have broken building some projects.  https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml I am seeing failures like:

Processing /home/tcaswell/source/p/yaml/pyyaml

  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for PyYAML

with the main branch of setuptools, but going back to the commit before this was merged (3106af0 which is v75.1.0) works again.

I have not had time to debug this further and it is not all packages nor do I know if this is the only one.
