Drop py3.6 and py3.7 from Tempest
In zed cycle, OpenStack projects and oslo lib
has dropped the py3.6 and py3.7 support
- https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/runtimes/zed.html
With oslo not supporting the py3.6 and py3.7, Tempest master is
failing and cannot be run on py3.6|7 env.
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/tempest/+bug/1975036
We discussed about how to solve it in ML[1] and QA meeting[2] and
decided to drop it from Tempest too. Stable branches testing from
stable/victoria to stable/yoga (currently supported branch by Tempest
master) can be tested on py3.8 or if cloud run those releases on py3.6
then Tempest can be run in virtual env with py38.
