chore: py312 compat; imp is gone, use importlib

[supakeen]

The long-deprecated imp module is gone in Python 3.12. Use the importlib module to provide the same functionality.

Fedora is switching to Python 3.12 in rawhide (the upcoming Fedora 39 release). The imp module has been deprecated since Python 3.4 and is removed in 3.12.

This PR changes the imp usage to instead use importlib.

If you wish I could add py311/py312 and remove py35 from/to your GH actions here as well or perhaps that should be a separate PR?

if you could it would be great!

I've updated the CI to add py311 and drop py35 in this PR. It won't apply until it's on main I think (I'm not good at GitHub actions). I didn't add py312 yet as it's still an alpha.

[supakeen]

I was wrong, it does apply them immediately here :)

it's possible to add also 3.12 by setting the python version to "3.12.0-alpha - 3.12"

It probably makes sense to create a new release for this. cc @vytas7 @kgriffs

LGTM, thanks for this PR!
I've just taken the liberty of bumping up python_requires (this is actually much more important nowadays than Trove classifiers).

[CaselIT]

@vytas7 it probably makes sense to also release this to pypi.
can we fix also #23?

[vytas7]

Probably not yet re #23, I think it is better to tackle it incrementally, and I'd like to start with restructuring the project's architecture first along the lines of #10.
