To Reproduce Import biocommons.seqrepo or anything contained therein

Additional context If memory serves, importlib.metadata is the drop-in fix, but it's also worth asking if this version check is needed.

Users can get around this for now by also pinning a newer version of setuptools (eg 68) in addition to biocommons.seqrepo in their project dependencies
