The Steering Council has accepted PEP 810 (explicit lazy imports) for Python 3.15!

I benchmarked `--help` on one of my CLIs with the reference implementation for PEP 810 (Explicit lazy imports).

Because my CLI already does the "inline imports" thing of moving them into functions just before they get used, I got a speedup of x1.3.

Then I moved all the imports to the top like normal, and got a speedup of x2.9!
