Security fix backport request: Python 3.9 support dropped prematurely in 8.3.0 #330

Bug Description

https://github.com/codingjoe/django-select2/releases/tag/8.3.0 drops support for Python 3.9 ("Drop official support for EOL Python, Django and Node versions"). However, Python 3.9 is not end-of-life yet: https://endoflife.date/python.

That gives us a problem, because we're on Python 3.9 and django-select 8.2.3, and there's a security issue in 8.2.3, but we cannot upgrade to a secure version unless we upgrade to a Python 3.10 or later, which we're in the process of doing, but that takes more time.

Any chance of backporting the 8.4.0...8.4.1 change to 8.2.x?

Steps to Reproduce

python3.9 -m pip install django-select==8.4.1

Expected Behavior

I expect django-select2 to support Python3.9 since it's not EOL yet.
