Move importlib.abc.SourceLoader.source_to_code() to InspectLoader.
While the previous location was fine, it makes more sense to have the method higher up in the inheritance chain, especially at a point where get_source() is defined which is the earliest source_to_code() could programmatically be used in the inheritance tree in importlib.abc.
