Remove support for Python < 3.8

The oldest python version currently supported is 3.9, so supporting 3.8 is still a nicety to users. We previously didn't explicitly state the required python version in our setup.py. However, this shouldn't affect users of old python versions, who should get the latest ijson package that didn't state a python_requires clause. Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Tobar <[email protected]>
