Python 3.10 ecoutils error: module pprint has no attribute _safe_repr

I just stumble upon an issue with ecoutils. On Python 3.10 (which was just released today), I get the following error:

Thanks @mahmoud for the quick fix! I'll use the tip of the main branch until the next release then! 😎👍

Hey @mahmoud, do you have any plan to publish a new release of boltons? Some of my users are starting to noticing this error on Python 3.10. 😅
