docs: List supported Python versions

[jesse-c]

Python 3.8 is due to reach its scheduled upstream end-of-life in October 2024.

In preparation for this, we're marking support for this version as deprecated. It's still available, but will be removed in a future version.

[sakoush]

We should probably establish whether mlserver supports py11 and py12

[jesse-c]

@sakoush: I was thinking about that. I did some brief testing, and had some dependency installation failures on Python 3.11.8. Happy to update it to say that it's "untested" or something like that.

wdyt?

yes we need to reflect status and perhaps also add an issue to investigate why mlserver doesnt work on py3.11.

[jesse-c]

I've added mentions for 3.11 and 3.12 in this change.

[RafalSkolasinski]

As far as I understand #1603 removed support for Python 3.8.
Because of

MLServer/pyproject.toml

Line 46 in 775fa4f

python = ">=3.9,<3.12"

it will not be able to use it with Python 3.8 so it is not deprecated but removed

@RafalSkolasinski: This PR was opened before that, so I'll update this now.

[jesse-c]

@RafalSkolasinski: Done! Thank you for the reminder. 🙏🏻

Update: It's not showing up yet in the PR view here, but you can see it on my branch. Hopefully it'll show up soon.
