several changes for python27, pylint, ansible-lint (#170)

revert previous change for virtualenv - this broke some python3 testenvs

drop py37, add py312

use ansible-core 2.17 and pylint 3.1.0 for testenv pylint

This will require a change to the github action ci tests to use py39
for pylint (and flake8 and black)

remove extends: from yamllint to make it work with ansible-lint

The latest ansible-lint will automatically extend its configuration
with any .yamllint.yml found.  If you use "extends: default", it will
override this behavior.  Since we only use .yamllint.yml in conjunction
with ansible-lint, it is much better to just remove "extends: default"
from .yamllint.yml so that the built-in ansible-lint defaults will be
used.
