To Reproduce
I don't have a great reproduction tutorial but its somewhat described in https://stackoverflow.com/a/2058872

1. Use python3.11 and install pre-commit in a venv
2. pre-commit will create its own venv that fallsback to a sys python
3. Use pre-commit or use a subprocess.Popen to install salt-lint via the setup.py but don't have the cwd set the root of salt-lint repo
4. pip will not be able to install salt-lint because it's looking for the relative path to salt-lint to import the versioning information

Expected behavior
I should be able to install salt-lint without needing any relative directory or path to be accessible

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• Redhat
• 7.9

Additional context

If you'd like me to take a stab at it, I believe if we require python3.8 (remember python3.7 is deprecated https://endoflife.date/python)

Then we can do the following code in the cli.py which is the reason the versioning appears to be in init.py and not just hardcoded in setup.py

$ python3.11
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from importlib.metadata import version  
>>> version("salt-lint")
'0.9.2'
