Crash on import `AttributeError: dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, GetMacOSStatusCommentString): symbol not found`

Description

On trying to install this module on Python 3.7, I immediately see an error message on import that is preventing the module from working.

Installed package from:

python3.7 -m pip install send2trash

I realize Python 3.7 is quite old, but I'm mainly writing this report to record this issue.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I tried using an install recommended in https://github.com/arsenetar/send2trash/issues/51#issuecomment-858111428

python3 -m pip install pyobjc-framework-Cocoa==7.3 send2trash==1.7.0a1

Now I get a different error:

@TheMatt2 try using a different version of the pyobjc-framework-Cocoa library. I was running into the same issues as you and using the latest release resolved it for me.
