      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      Optimize pymongo import time. For example if pymongo-auth-aws is installed pymongo will automatically import it even if the client does not use MONGODB-AWS auth. Importing pymongo-auth-aws takes 476ms on my machine because it depends on boto3 which takes 475ms.

      A similar story is likely with our other optional dependencies: https://pymongo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#optional-dependencies
