FWIW I've used this for years:
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/v1.13.1/qutebrowser/utils/utils.py#L179-L188

But I do think importlib_resources (or the builtin importlib.resources
with Python 3.7+) would be the proper way nowadays:
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/4467

It looks like PyInstaller has built-in hooks for that:
https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/blob/develop/PyInstaller/hooks/hook-importlib_resources.py
