Drop 3.6 testing #610

Closed mtreinish closed 2 years ago

mtreinish commented 2 years ago

Summary

Upstream Qiskit has dropped support for python 3.6. Since ignis is in maintenance mode pending archive we can just drop testing for this. This commit does this and removes the python 3.6 job. Since we're not doing active feature development anymore we don't have to worry too much about Python 3.6 compat. If need to release again before the archive we can revisit the minimum supported python version in that release. As ignis is pure Python there are less compatibility issues to worry about.
