Removed py37 and py38 from macports CI

[Iximiel]

Description

In #967, related to the EOL of python3.7, I lost the "py37" in the macports-CI, here I removed it

Type of contribution

• changes to code or doc authored by PLUMED developers, or additions of code in the core or within the default modules
• changes to a module not authored by you
• new module contribution or edit of a module authored by you

Copyright

• I agree to transfer the copyright of the code I have written to the PLUMED developers or to the author of the code I am modifying.

• the module I added or modified contains a COPYRIGHT file with the correct license information. Code should be released under an open source license. I also used the command cd src && ./header.sh mymodulename in order to make sure the headers of the module are correct.

Tests

• I added a new regtest or modified an existing regtest to validate my changes.
• I verified that all regtests are passed successfully on GitHub Actions.

Tests were failing not due to the EOL of 3.7 the error message says:

Error: Processing of port py38-plumed failed
---> Some of the ports you installed have notes:
OpenBLAS has the following notes:
This version is built based on a base architecture for convenience,
which may not be optimized for your system. To build a version
customized for your machine, use the +native variant
py38-pytest has the following notes:
To make the Python 3.8 version of pytest the one that is run when you
execute the commands without a version suffix, e.g. 'pytest', run:

sudo port select --set pytest pytest38

I cnverted this to a draft to check what is the problem

I did some experimentation (see here) and I found that there may be linking problems with blas and numpy for python 3.8 and 3.7 in the macports installation, removing them the CI should pass

python 3.7 reached EOL this year and python 3.8 will reach EOL around October 2024

@Iximiel should this be backported to maintained versions of PLUMED perhaps?

[Iximiel]

Philosophicallly not, but in practice yes, for the sake of the CI working
Tomorrow I'm setting up a rebase for the 2.8 that shall then be merged into the 2.9, hopefully no conflict will arise
