As part of reduce testing complexity and getting ansible-lint in sync with ansible-core, we will require python_version>=3.8.

This change marks the start of 6.x and once is merged we will create a stable/5.x for the last comment before it. That branch will be used to backport changes needed for the older versions, at least until we can make a full release of 6.x.

One additional reason for making this move is a recent explosion of dependencies dropping support for py36 or even py37: pytest, coverage, pip-compile, tomli.

Please mark your support or lack of on this change as we are aware that it may upset some users that are still stuck on older platform as it will be harder for them to get bugfixes.

I think this change should add a config for Patchback, then. And maybe for cherry-pick too.

That could count as scope creeping. Anything that is not directly needed should go in follow-ups.

In fact, I suppose that backports will likely be done manually as I expect to see the codebase diverge.

+1 from me.

As part of reduce testing complexity and getting ansible-lint in sync
with  ansible-core, we drop support for older python versions.

This change marks the start of `6.x` and once is merged we will
create a `stable/5.x` for the last comment before it. That branch
will be used to backport changes needed for the older versions, at
least until we can make a full release of 6.x.

One additional reason for making this move is a recent explosion
of dropping support for py36 and sometimes even py37 on other
dependencies, such pytest, coverage, pip-compile, tomli.

PR ansible#1850 removed support for python 3.6 and python 3.7 so this
should be reflected in the package metadata for setuptools

Since PR ansible#1850 removed support for python 3.6 and python 3.7
some special code paths can be now be removed.

This also allows updating some test and typing dependencies
which very pinned for python 3.6 and python 3.7 support.
