ENH: Drop dependency on pytz in favor of zoneinfo

[aDramaQueen]

Feature Type

• Adding new functionality to pandas

• Changing existing functionality in pandas

• Removing existing functionality in pandas

Problem Description

Hi,
pytz is/was a good llibrary. But it's obsolete since PEP 615. In the long run, you should not use 3rd party package, but the language integrated functionality.
Even big frameworks like Django (Django Release Info) already dropped pytz.

Feature Description

Nothing should change for any user, therefore i post here standard code:

pd.Timestamp('2017-01-01T12')

Alternative Solutions

Ignore it and hope pytz will be supported as long as possible

Additional Context

No response
