pygls > 1.0.x breaks version checks

[shadeMe]

pygls 1.1 seems to have removed the __version__ attribute from the top-level module, which breaks the validation code.

Checking versions for python 3.7+ is annoying due to the lack of importlib.metadata in python 3.7.

If you switch this to python 3.8+ you can use importlib.metadata instead. For python 3.7+ you could use importlib_metadata from spacy.compat. You'd have to refactor the version checking code a bit to import spacy first/separately.

So a "quick fix" would be to install pygls>=1.0.0,<1.1.0.

But as Python 3.7 and 3.8 have reached their EOL is supporting them in this extension still an issue?
