python: drop uses of pkg_resources

pkg_resources has been fully dropped from modern pip/setuptools
distributions and we should phase out its use. This patch is enough to,
by itself, repair most GitLab CI tests upstream; with the exception of
tox tests which are still making use of avocado - which will be dropped
in a separate series to restore functionality there.
