Numpy strives to adhere to NEP29, and SPEC0
SEPC0 makes it pretty clear that Python 3.9 should not be included in
any "future" versions.
Leading by example in this case will help downstream make the hard
decision to adhere to the compatibility guidelines from SPEC0.
Thank you for considering this last minute request. I know it adds
work at this stage.

I think NumPy should not be the leader in dropping versions, rather
should be one of the more conservative packages since other packages
depend on it. We have indeed dropped 3.9 on HEAD, and will not be
supporting it for 2.1, but to me it makes sense to support it for the
large 2.0 release.
