remove support for Python 3.8 #114

Proposed Changes:

Python 3.8 is EOL this year, so there are no new projects that should be using it, and existing projects don't need to update to the next major-minor.
In the last two changes I've tried to make, I've had incompatibilities with 3.8 that have required a workaround, so supporting it is becoming a burden.

PR Checklist:

[X] I have added my changes to the CHANGELOG or a CHANGELOG entry is not required.

Could add 3.12? It's already in there.

It's already in there.

🤦🏼

Also @gadomski, the only reason I was reluctant to remove it was we have this idea that it may be possible to convert an existing container that runs processing (possibly on an older version of Python b/c scientists) into a stactask Task, but I think that's not feasible in most cases, so need to find another way to do that anyway.
