Fix #104183: Error submitting job to flamenco manager. The bug happened when a user, using filesystem as storage solution, would try to submit the job to the flamenco manager. The user would be shown an Error -> Error packing with BAT: 'Packer' object has no attribute 'actual_checkout_path'. The fix was to account for multiple implementations of the Packer object.

Type annotations and lazy imports
This add-on tries to only load Python packages from wheel files when necessary. Loading things from wheels is tricky, as they basically pollute the sys.modules dictionary and thus can "leak" to other add-ons. This can cause conflicts when, for example, another add-on is using a different version of the same package.
The result is that sometimes there are some strange hoops to jump through. The most obvious one is for type annotations. This is why you'll see code like:
if TYPE_CHECKING:
from .bat_interface import _PackThread
else:
_PackThread = object
This makes it possible to declare a function with def func() -> _PackThread, without having to load bat_interface immediately at import time.
