Subject: [PATCH 1/2] chore: use lazy imports for concurrent.futures

This module has a manual lazy import hack using `__getattr__`. Now that lazy imports exist and cannot be disabled, this could use lazy imports instead.

Key differences: this will now show up in sys.lazy_modules when accessed. Error messages should be a bit better without the wrapper `__getattr__` involved.  That's the only differences I can think of.
