124: pip dependency resolver changes

pip is the package installer for Python. Often, when you run pip, especially the first time in a new virtual environment, you will see something like: WARNING: You are using pip version 20.1.1; however, version 20.2 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command. And you should. Because 20.2 has a new dependency resolver. Get in the habit, until October, of replacing pip install with pip install --use-feature=2020-resolver. This flag is new in the 20.2 release. This new pip dependency resolver is the result of a lot of work.
