Drop support for EOL Python 3.7

[hugovk]

Python 3.7 is EOL this month:

• https://devguide.python.org/versions/
• https://peps.python.org/pep-0537/

Let's drop it. I don't mind if we wait until 2023-06-27, but we're probably close enough?

Does dropping a Python warrant a major or minor bump?

I used to do major, but python_requires = >=3.8 ensures the new release only installs for the right group, and I'm now leaning towards a minor, but either is fine with me.

(If we had deprecations to drop, I'd do those at the same time and do major, but we don't.)

A recent poll on the topic favours minor:

Sorry, once again no strong opinion about minor vs major. Minor is fine for me.

Let's do minor then :)
