For reference, this fixes failures we're seeing in CI like https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/actions/runs/5484040336/jobs/9991067272

ERROR: Package 'matrix-synapse' requires a different Python: 3.7.13 not in '<4.0.0,>=3.8.0'

...

Error: Command ['pip', 'install', '/tmp/cibuildwheel/repaired_wheel/matrix_synapse-1.87.0-cp37-abi3-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl'] failed with code 1. 

(notice how it's trying to run with an image called cp37 because that's what Debian Buster has but we dropped support for Python 3.7 already)

I've made a follow-up PR to document the distribution EOL date and EOL date forced by the Python version that each distribtion uses -> #15909

This way the connection is more obvious and hopefully we can catch this next time we want to remove a Python version.
