Description

pkg_resources is deprecated.

pkg_resources is currently used in tiingo.api to get the package version.

I get deprecation warnings when running some basic tests in Python 3.12.

Warning Message

../../.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/tiingo/api.py:9
DeprecationWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html
    import pkg_resources

Thanks for the heads up! I see that importlib.resources is recommended instead.

If you're interested to submit a PR, I would be happy to review it. Otherwise, I will make sure to fix this before the next library release.
