Description
For bcrypt 4.1.1, I get this error/warning when I run this code (code which is in FastAPI documentation)
I have passlib 1.7.4
from passlib.context import CryptContext
pwd_context = CryptContext(schemes=["bcrypt"], deprecated="auto")
pwd_context.hash('test')
output
(trapped) error reading bcrypt version
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\path\venv\Lib\site-packages\passlib\handlers\bcrypt.py", line 620, in _load_backend_mixin
version = _bcrypt.__about__.__version__
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: module 'bcrypt' has no attribute '__about__'

It's not breaking anything, because code still runs.
This is not the case with bcrypt 4.0.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the documented CryptContext example with bcrypt 4.1.1 and passlib 1.7.4, then compare the output with bcrypt 4.0.1. Review the reported version lookup at passlib/handlers/bcrypt.py line 620; done means the warning is addressed while password hashing continues to work.
