Support all Python versions above 3.4

[strokirk]

Hi,

Python 3.10 is released, and the only thing preventing transifex-client from using it is the setup.py configuration.

For ease of review I just performed the same changes as #306 .

If it seems reasonable, I'd be glad to update the python_requires line to allow all Python versions above 3.4 instead (so I can experiment with 3.11 easier 😊).

I agree with the idea of dropping 3.11 as the max Python version in python_requires. If we're worried about breaking changes in Python, how about python_requires=">=2.7,!=3.0.*,!=3.1.*,!=3.2.*,!=3.3.*,<4" instead?

[strokirk]

I've updated the PR to simply allow all modern Python 3 subversions.

any chance that this will get merged soon? :) It's quite a blocker since many distros ship with python 3.10

Ping @kostasgian , anything I need to change for this PR to be merged?

[kostasgian]

Hi @strokirk , nice work!
Please consider squashing the commits and please check of the failed checks!

You need to know though, that this client will soon be deprecated and will be replaced by the new tx client.

[strokirk]

Hi @kostasgian , thanks for the response! I've rebased on the latest master.

Is the new tx client out of alpha? Congratulations in that case!

For some reason the tests fail on Python 2.7.

Hi @strokirk , we removed the alpha label from the new tx client and we are promoting it now as the default client for transifex.

Now as far as it concerns the test fails I need to find some time first in order to take a look...

Can this PLEASE be merged and released? It's been more than half a year, and transifex-client STILL fails to install on 3.10...

[ThiefMaster]

OK, looks like there's a new CLI. Being able to install the old one with pip as part of the dev requirements was pretty convenient... Maybe archive the repo if this one is dead?

[strokirk]

@ThiefMaster Just a heads up that the new CLI is quite a bit slower, and hard to install. So it might be wise to invest in automating the tx runs in a CI actions or something similar.

Our company is working on an asdf plugin and Github Action to simplify installation, I'll post it here once it's up!
