Update black to a non pre-release version (black==22.1.0)

[Galileo-Galilei]

Description

The kedro template still use black==21.5b1 which is a pre-release version non covered by the stability policy of the last 22.1.0 version.

Context

I would like to be able to install a non prelease version of black and to benefit for their stability policy. I also think it is better for kedro not to rely on a pre-release version if an official release is available (e.g. to avoid warning from internal security tools).

Possible Implementation

• Change to black==22.1.0 in the template requirements
• Update the files of the template with the new black version (a couples of files have some lines splitted differently). This is completely straightforward.

Unless I miss something which would have some other impact, I can open a PR.

Possible Alternatives

Let people change the black version themselves in their templates. Since click was upgraded in #1193 , this will be possible in kedro=0.18. I do not really like this option (you have to remember to do this each time you start a kedro project + you have a first commit with pure formatting change which is less readable) but this would be a possible workaround.

Hi @Galileo-Galilei, thanks for pointing this out. Your proposed solution sounds good - please do go ahead and open a PR. If you don't mind raising one for https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-starters also then that would be great also. Since the click requirement has only been bumped for develop, I presume the black version change will only work in kedro 0.18? In which case you should make the kedro-starters PR's target branch = 0.18.0.

Somewhat related - interested in your thoughts on #1293 if you get a chance to look at it. And also I finally got around to thinking about this and I think you will like the result 😄
