[is deprecated](https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#importlib.abc.Loader.load_module) since python 3.4 and will be removed in python 3.12. Use
exec_moduleinstead. Provide a convenience function in
distutils.misc_utilsinstead of
npy_load_modulefrom
compat.py3k`.This PR was triggered by deprecation warnings in python 3.10.
