chore: remove use of pkg_resources for newer python versions

[jackwotherspoon]

pkg_resources is vastly seen as deprecated and in the latest Python version it has been removed entirely from being pre-installed as part of Python python/cpython#95299

This results in the following error with Python 3.12 when using pytds:

.nox\system-3-12\Lib\site-packages\pytds\__init__.py:69: in <module>
    import pkg_resources  # type: ignore # fix later
E   ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

To fix this we can leverage importlib.metadata as a replacement for pkg_resources.get_distribution().version

@denisenkom let me know if you think this change is acceptable 😄

Could also use a version.py instead and read from it as an option

Yeah, I think this is good. I am thinking in future to simplify it more. The idea is to inject a version as part of a build process, so that during runtime it would be just a constant.

Thanks @denisenkom! Just curious when the next release is scheduled be cut so that this change takes effect? 🚀
