Implementing lazy imports
'''''''''''''''''''''''''
The example below shows how to implement lazy imports::
>>> import importlib.util
>>> import sys
>>> def lazy_import(name):
... spec = importlib.util.find_spec(name)
... loader = importlib.util.LazyLoader(spec.loader)
... spec.loader = loader
... module = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec)
... sys.modules[name] = module
... loader.exec_module(module)
... return module
...
>>> lazy_typing = lazy_import("typing")
>>> #lazy_typing is a real module object,
>>> #but it is not loaded in memory yet.
>>> lazy_typing.TYPE_CHECKING
