[docs] [issue37674] Is imp module deprecated or pending deprecation?

[Mariatta]

New submission from Mariatta <mariatta at python.org>:

The doc https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/imp.html says "Deprecated since version 3.4: The imp package is pending deprecation in favor of importlib."

Is it in "deprecated" state, or "pendingdeprecation" state?
Should it just be removed in 3.9?

Maybe I just don't understand the difference of "deprecated" and "pending deprecation" :(
