Title:
  Deprecation warnings

Status in pastebinit package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in pastebinit source package in Disco:
  In Progress
Status in pastebinit source package in Eoan:
  Fix Released
Status in pastebinit package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Without this fix, scripts which depend on the output of pastebinit
  will probably break. It will also confuse the new user, who might
  think it is their fault, and annoy the experienced user.

  [Test Case]

  Running this:
  $ echo "test" | pastebinit

  Should just produce the URL. Not this:
  /usr/bin/pastebinit:42: DeprecationWarning: dist() and linux_distribution() functions are deprecated in Python 3.5
    release = platform.linux_distribution()[0].lower()
  /usr/bin/pastebinit:413: DeprecationWarning: pasteURLopener style of invoking requests is deprecated. Use newer urlopen functions/methods
    url_opener = pasteURLopener()

  [Regression Potential]

  Little to none. Unless Python itself breaks, the syntax itself should
  be correct.

  [Original Description]

  $ dpkg-query -W pastebinit
  pastebinit      1.5-2
  $ lsb_release -a
  No LSB modules are available.
  Distributor ID: Ubuntu
  Description:    Ubuntu Disco Dingo (development branch)
  Release:        19.04
  Codename:       disco
  $ echo 'a'|pastebinit
  /usr/bin/pastebinit:42: DeprecationWarning: dist() and linux_distribution() functions are deprecated in Python 3.5
    release = platform.linux_distribution()[0].lower()
  /usr/bin/pastebinit:413: DeprecationWarning: pasteURLopener style of invoking requests is deprecated. Use newer urlopen functions/methods
    url_opener = pasteURLopener()
  http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/R4f5RKMWTf/

  Expected results: URL output only
