Bump importlib-metadata from 1.4.0 to 4.1.0

[dependabot-preview]

Bumps importlib-metadata from 1.4.0 to 4.1.0.

Changelog

Sourced from importlib-metadata's changelog.

v4.1.0

• #312: Add support for metadata 2.2 (Dynamic field).
• #315: Add SimplePath protocol for interface clarity in PathDistribution.

v4.0.1

• #306: Clearer guidance about compatibility in readme.

v4.0.0

• #304: PackageMetadata as returned by metadata() and Distribution.metadata() now provides normalized metadata honoring PEP 566:
  • If a long description is provided in the payload of the RFC 822 value, it can be retrieved as the Description field.
  • Any multi-line values in the metadata will be returned as such.
  • For any multi-line values, line continuation characters are removed. This backward-incompatible change means that any projects relying on the RFC 822 line continuation characters being present must be tolerant to them having been removed.
  • Add a json property that provides the metadata converted to a JSON-compatible form per PEP 566.

v3.10.1

• Minor tweaks from CPython.

v3.10.0

• #295: Internal refactoring to unify section parsing logic.

v3.9.1

• #296: Exclude 'prepare' package.
• #297: Fix ValueError when entry points contains comments.

v3.9.0

• Use of Mapping (dict) interfaces on SelectableGroups is now flagged as deprecated. Instead, users are advised to use the select interface for future compatibility.

  Suppress the warning with this filter: ignore:SelectableGroups dict interface.

  Or with this invocation in the Python environment: warnings.filterwarnings('ignore', 'SelectableGroups dict interface').

  Preferably, switch to the select interface introduced in 3.7.0. See the entry points documentation and changelog for the 3.6 release below for more detail.

  For some use-cases, especially those that rely on importlib.metadata in Python 3.8 and 3.9 or those relying on older importlib_metadata (especially on Python 3.5 and earlier), backports.entry_points_selectable was created to ease the transition. Please have a look at that project if simply relying on importlib_metadata 3.6+ is not straightforward. Background in #298.

• #283: Entry point parsing no longer relies on ConfigParser and instead uses a custom, one-pass parser to load the config, resulting in a ~20% performance improvement when loading entry points.
