Dropping pkg_resources

Currently this uses pkg_resources, which is planned to go away:

import pkg_resources

The code using it mainly uses the iter_entry_points function:

Lines 17 to 22 in b73a8c4

    
           for entry_point in pkg_resources.iter_entry_points("streamz.sources"): 
        
               try_register(cls, entry_point, staticmethod) 
        
           for entry_point in pkg_resources.iter_entry_points("streamz.nodes"): 
        
               try_register(cls, entry_point) 
        
           for entry_point in pkg_resources.iter_entry_points("streamz.sinks"): 
        
               try_register(cls, entry_point)

This could be replaced by importlib.metadata.entry_points, which has been around since Python 3.8.

Hi. I can no longer discover any use of pkg_resources in the code base, so I guess this can be closed. /cc @martindurant

Right think PR ( #455 ), specifically commit ( 2812f1f ) fixes this issue

That said, there doesn't appear to be a release with the fix. Is a release planned?

I hope Martin will run a release after the recent improvements.

Yes, I plan to release!
