Subject: [PATCH] Replace pkg_resources with packaging for version parsing

`pkg_resources` from `setuptools` is unavailable in Python 3.13,
breaking the docs build with Sphinx 9. This switches to the `packaging`
library which provides the same `Version.base_version` API and is the
modern standard replacement. Also drops the stale `markupsafe==2.0.1`
pin which was a workaround for an old Jinja2 compatibility issue.
