Deprecationwarning about pkg_resources

[veenstrajelmer]

What maintenance does this project need?

Importing pkg_resources is deprecated:

../../../../../opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.12.3/x64/lib/python3.12/site-packages/cdsapi/api.py:17

/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.12.3/x64/lib/python3.12/site-packages/cdsapi/api.py:17: DeprecationWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html
    import pkg_resources

#74 seems to partly fix this, but could be slightly neater. importlib.metadata is available since python 3.8. should work like this:

from importlib.metadata import version  
version('wheel')  
'0.32.3'
