Description

Request to update robotframework-selenium to the latest standards:
Removal of the depracated setup.py in favour of the new pyproject.toml (see also: https://github.com/rticau/ScreenCapLibrary/issues/89)
Drop support for depracated Python 3.8 & 3.9
Integrate newest features of Selenium 3.34.1
Set minimum RobotFramework version to 6 so old support can be dropped and everyone be forced to adopt to the newest standards. (Seriously, noone should be useing RobotFramework V4 anymore....).
