Support for py39 and above

[brey]

I have an issue open on the conda forge feedstock but I had no answer so I thought to raise it here as well.

Currently we are using itkwidgets in our package as conda upstream dependency which creates a constraint to keep it at py38. Is there a reason that the package isn't build for py39 and above?

Hi, 0.X works with py39. It should work with py310 soon. 1.X alpha works with py38 and above.

@thewtex thanks for the update.

Will it be possible to update the conda-forge package to support at least 3.9? Based on #531 you could do 3.7,3.8,3.9 in the CI/CD there.

The conda-forge builds look like they are failing due to a missing requirements.txt -- an attempt to address this with https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/itkwidgets/pull/539.

The pyimagej team just ran into this issue today. Has there been any progress on this?

[thewtex]

Hi @gselzer we'll release a new patch version with #539 along with itk-5.3.0 including support for CPython 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 in about a week's timeframe.

Great, thanks @thewtex!

Related side-note, we also have PyImageJ notebooks testing / passing on the 1.X branch with #575 .
