Replace deprecated imp module with importlib

[hugovk]

This project uses the imp module which has been deprecated since Python 3.4 and removed in 3.12:

• Raised PendingDeprecationWarning since 3.4 (2014)
• Raised DeprecationWarning since 3.5 (2015)
• Updated DeprecationWarning to say removal in 3.12 since 3.10 (2021)
• Removal planned for 3.12 (2023)

Python 3.12 is set for release on 2023-10-02 and this library is one of the top 5,000 most-downloaded from PyPI.

Please could you upgrade to use importlib? The imp docs have suggestions on what to use to replace each function and constant.

import imp

That module is old and is only imported in strip_hints_main if Python 2 is detected. Otherwise the import_hooks_py3 module is imported. The latter uses importlib, and has for some time.

Sounds good, then nothing to do here. Thanks!
