New Behavior

Drop test coverage for Ansible versions before v2.15.0
Drop test coverage for Python versions before v3.8.0
Update test suite such that ansible-test sanity now passes

Contrast to Current Behavior

Impact is strictly to test coverage. Current test behavior includes obsolete versions of both Ansible and Python; this change drops support for obsolete versions of both.

Discussion: Benefits and Drawbacks

Benefits:

Moves this collection toward alignment with current Ansible best practices
Reduces the maintenance burden of keeping tests passing on those obsolete versions

Drawbacks:

Some specialized use cases may depend on coverage with obsolete Ansible and Python versions

Changes to the Documentation

None needed

Proposed Release Note Entry

Dropped test coverage for Ansible versions older than v2.15.0 and Python versions older than 3.8.0, both of which are now obsolete.

Run black locally and commit/push should take care of this lint failure.
