Description
There are many Python packages that don't specify `python_requires`. There are rumours that setuptools/PyPI is going to make `python_requires` a required field. Adding it manually is a pain, so I'd love to automate this with e.g. `check-python-versions --add 3.5- --add-python-requires `.

Research direction
Start by locating the command-line entry point that handles options such as `check-python-versions --add 3.5-`, then review how package metadata is currently updated. Done means the tool can accept `--add-python-requires` and automate adding the requested `python_requires` value to a Python package.
