Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I believe msrestazure has been widely deprecated and should be removed from the python dependencies.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like msrestazure to not be part of the Python deps for azure-cli-core

Describe alternatives you've considered None

Additional context

msrestazure will also bring adal(Microsoft Azure Active Directory Authentication Library) as a dependency which is also inactive and deprecated.

Is there a target date for this dependency to be removed from azure-cli? The repository has been archived as of the 10th of April 2024 so I think it would be quite important to remove. See here for reference.

We currently can't remove the dependency on msrestazure as we still use it for managed identity authentication. Migrating managed identity authentication from msrestazure to MSAL is tracked by https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/issues/25860.

Is there a target date for this dependency to be removed from azure-cli?

We currently don't have a solid ETA for that yet.
