Drop support for Python 3.6 and 3.7

Description

We currently have a Github Actions matrix which runs tests on Python versions 3.6-3.9. Python 3.6 is currently EOL, and is a blocker for keeping some dependencies up to date. i reckon it would be reasonable to drop support for Python 3.6 from the GitHub Actions matrix, as well as possibly adding newer versions of python to the test matrix, however Python 3.9 is what is used by most of our projects, so, while adding newer versions would be nice, it isn't a super high priority.

It also appears python 3.8 was causing issues with the linter. While it was possible to get around the problem by pinning a specific transitive dependency of flake8, this felt like a hack, so I decided to just drop support for python 3.7 altogether.
