Package is broken on LTS

[gdalle]

The recent release v1.7 of this package does something fishy with Requires, and as a result it is broken on Julia LTS. This means that a ton of downstream packages are broken too, like ComponentArrays and DI's tests (see JuliaDiff/DifferentiationInterface.jl#409).
Since #39 dropped support for Julia LTS, v1.7 is the latest version of StaticArrayInterface that can be installed on LTS. Can we maybe get a fix backported there?

I think we can just yank the v1.7 release with #38. I'm not sure why that gives Requires.jl issues but it seems to, and it's probably not worth spending more time on since the v1.10+ version simply removes Requires. So leaving the old v1.6 version to just always use Requires and v1.8 with it fully removed is a simple solution.

thanks!
