This avoids the need to duplicate our dependency list in multiple places and allows us to take advantage of tox's dependency management infrastructure, to ensure we always get the latest and greatest version of a package allowed by upper-constraints.

stevedore -- Manage dynamic plugins for Python applications
Python makes loading code dynamically easy, allowing you to configure
and extend your application by discovering and loading extensions
("plugins") at runtime. Many applications implement their own
library for doing this, using __import__ or
importlib. stevedore avoids creating yet another extension
mechanism by building on top of setuptools
entry points. The code for managing entry points tends to be
repetitive, though, so stevedore provides manager classes for
implementing common patterns for using dynamically loaded
extensions.
