The CI test matrix is derived from these classifiers via the build-and-inspect-python-package action.
- Update test_python_37_deprecated to expect 3.9 in error message - Remove obsolete 'fast loader' assertions that were for Python <3.9
Removes Python 3.8 resolution markers and dependencies that were only needed for Python <3.9.
