feat: remove Python 3.6 support (#5177)

* Change Python version guard: PYTHON < 3.7 IS UNSUPPORTED.

* Replace or remove Python 3.6 jobs.

* Move appveyor to Python 3.8

* Change `[tool.pylint]` `master.py-version` from `3.6` to `3.8`

* Change `[tool.pylint]` `master.py-version` to `3.7`

* Remove `centos:7` job; Change almalinux:8 job to use Python 3.8

* Try 🐍 3.8 • ubuntu-20.04 • x64 without `-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-D_=1"`

* Update setup.cfg as suggested by @henryiii

* Try running `cmake --build . --target cpptest` on all platforms (`standard` job).

* Disable deadsnakes jobs entirely.

* Apply PR #5179: Add Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 to win32 job matrix.

* Add back `-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-D_=1"` but do not install boost in that case.

* PY_VERSION_HEX < 3.7 cleanup pass: include/pybind11

* WITH_THREAD cleanup pass: include/pybind11

* Undo incorrect change.

* Revert "Disable deadsnakes jobs entirely."

This reverts commit bbcd0087b2.

* WITH_THREAD cleanup pass: tests/

* Change Python version guard in pybind11/__init__.py: pybind11 does not support Python < 3.7.

* Misc cleanup pass

* chore: use future imports

Think of this library as a tiny self-contained version of Boost.Python
with everything stripped away that isn't relevant for binding

some C++11 language features (specifically: tuples, lambda functions and

In addition to the core functionality, pybind11 provides some extra
