Refresh supported operating systems list

* Declare full support for distributions OpenStack supports in Yoga [1],
  with an exception of CentOS Stream 8.
* Deprecate support for distributions that only ship Python 3.6.
* Deprecate Fedora support. Being a moving target, it is hard to chase.
  Users that prefer a Red Hat system are better served by CentOS Stream.
