Our Python version support is tied to upstream requirements in redis-py. As of redis-py 7.1.0, Python 3.10+ is required.
Additionally:
While we don't jump all the way to redis-py 7.1.0 in this PR, with Python 3.9 EOL and redis-py dropping support, we might as well drop it.
We do raise the minimum redis-py version to 4.2.0 in this PR, which technically is a breaking change. However, 3.5.3 is five years old! It also doesn't support some of the features this library uses, which means we don't actually support 3.5.3 anyway.
