Python 3.7 and 3.8 have reached end of life #129

Description

@joakimnordling

The GitHub workflow (.github/workflows/pythonpackage.yml) is trying to use Python 3.7 and the setup.py and pyproject.toml also reference Python 3.7, as well as the README.rst. It looks like the workflow is also failing due to 3.7 not being available.

Python 3.7 reached end-of-life (EOL) on 2023-06-27 and Python 3.8 reached EOL on 2024-10-07. Might also be good to notice that Python 3.9 will reach EOL in ~2 months from when this was written (i.e. in 2025-10). Source: https://devguide.python.org/versions/

Would likely be good to update the workflow to use the latests version, i.e. 3.13, ensure 3.13 is added to the supported versions and remove the support for 3.7 and 3.8 (and soon 3.9). The list of usages I mentioned might not be complete, it was just the first quick places I checked.
