Adding support to python3.8

[Daniel-ChenJH]

Hi there! I ran ‘yen list’ and found that only 4 versions of python are supported here. I wonder if python 3.8 can be supported later? Thanks.

3.12.3
3.11.9
3.10.14
3.9.19

Hey, I've been meaning to support all the versions down to 3.7. It's possible to support a lot more specific minor and patch versions as well.

I'll do that.

thanks. I have got the latest version of yen 0.4.3, as i can see in PyPi, and installed by pip install yen. However, I cannot see py38 in the output of 'yen list'.

can you explain why no accessible python 3.8.18 can be used here? Thanks for any help.

This was a bug, and it should now be fixed in v0.4.4. Can you check and confirm?

[Daniel-ChenJH]

thanks! py3.8.18 is accessible now!
