'msilib' (used by 'spotfire.spk') to be deprecated in Python 3.11 #29

According to PEP 594 (https://peps.python.org/pep-0594/), the msilib module is currently scheduled for deprecation in Python 3.11, and for removal in Python 3.13. We currently use msilib in spotfire.spk to build the CAB file used by Analyst SPK files.

Find a solution for creating CAB files that does not use msilib.
