Lithops has a lot of dependencies in the base package, many of which are not needed when running Lithops.

There are a few things we could do here:

  1. Move dependencies for backends into 'extra' packages
  2. Make dependencies for optional features optional
    • redis
    • pandas/matplotlib/seaborn - for plotting
  3. Remove unused dependencies
    • lxml

If I'm not wrong, the docker and the python-dateutil packages can also be removed. I remember they were used in the past, but now I can't find any import of these libraries.

@gilv Do you agree on moving IBM dependencies from the default installation to extra packages? so that when using an IBM backend, users will have to install lithops like this: pip install lithops[ibm]?
