tox: remove requires: pip>=20.3.1 #8125
Conversation
Causes some trouble in CI and not really needed as old pip should still work.

this was added to replicate CI environment locally, while working on #8119 (CI was running pip 20.3.1, but tox didn't use the latest locally)

Right, it would be interesting to figure out what this error means
tox.exception.Error: Error: break infinite loop provisioning within /opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.8.6/x64/bin/python missing ['pip>=20.3.1']
but I'm taking a bit of a shortcut here to get the upcoming release going.
But even so I think we might want to leave this requires out; IIUC, until people get the new pip in their distro it would make the tox env creation a little longer? I haven't looked into it too much though.
