Update pylint to v2.9.3 and fix the new issues it spots (#946)

In CI run against pylint 2.9.3 and fix occurrences of:
 - W0237 (arguments-renamed)
 - W0402 (deprecated-module)

The W0402 deprecated-module was about module `imp`:

    cloudinit/patcher.py:9: [W0402(deprecated-module), ]
        Uses of a deprecated module 'imp'

The imp module is deprecated and replaced by importlib, which according
to the documentation has no replacement for acquire_lock() and
release_lock(), which are the only reason why `imp` is imported.
    
Nothing about the code using this lock that actually requires it.
Let's remove the locking code and the import altogether.

Dropping the locking makes patcher.patch() an empty wrapper around
_patch_logging(). Rename _patch_logging() to patch_logging() and
call it directly instead. Drop patch().
