[bug] update_checker.py:7: UserWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API

[maaaaz]

Hello,

Thanks for this great project!

After doing a pip install objection and launching the tool with objection --help, I encounter the following warning message:

/root/.virtualenvs/virtualenvobjection/lib/python3.13/site-packages/objection/utils/update_checker.py:7: UserWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html. The pkg_resources package is slated for removal as early as 2025-11-30. Refrain from using this package or pin to Setuptools<81.
  from pkg_resources import parse_version

Hi thanks I am aware of this one, it should already be fixed in current main branch after last merge. Though will require a dev install or a new pip release.
