Repository: marshmallow-code/webargs

Issue:
Importing ABC directly from collections module was removed in Python 3.9
Since the project is Python 3 only importing from collections.abc will resolve the issue. I will raise a PR.

https://github.com/marshmallow-code/webargs/blob/1b34470908cb54862b7aeb578f794ac3285cdf38/src/webargs/pyramidparser.py#L141

+* Remove the cache attached to webargs parsers. Due to changes between webargs
+  v5 and v6, the cache is no longer considered useful.
