pypy3.7 was retired in Fedora 37.
pypy3.9-7.3.9-4.3.9.fc37 is available in Fedora 37
pypy3.7-7.3.9-4.3.7.fc35/36 was the latest available in Fedora 35/36.
Fedora 35/36 users attempting to update to Fedora 37+ are getting
the not-up-to-date pypy3.9-7.3.9-3.3.9.fc37 as that is a version
does not explicitly conflict with their pypy3.7 version.
However, such update has a file conflict and will fail later:
$ rpm -q pypy3.7
pypy3.7-7.3.9-4.3.7.fc35.x86_64
$ rpm -q pypy3.9
pypy3.9-7.3.9-4.3.9.fc35.x86_64
$ sudo dnf --releasever=37 --assumeno distro-sync

By obsoleting pypy3.7 < 7.3.9-20 we allow some security backports in Fedora 35 and 36.
PyPy 7.3.10+ no longer exists for Python 3.7.
Eventually, the version of pypy3.7 in Fedora 35 might be updated.
This way, when users attempt a partial update to Fedora 36+,
the upgrade path will always be preserved.
(Considering we will not bump the base release of 3.7 to be higher than the one here.
This also means we should always update pypy3.9 first over all lower Python versions.)
and make pypy versions with otherwise the same version-release always sorted
by Python version as well.
This potentially allows tags like Obsoletes: pypy3 < %{version}-%{release}.
Fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2053880
Copied from python3.10,
"python" replaced with "pypy"
and various rules removed.
Added the unexpanded macro in: Requires: emacs-filesystem filter.
This is not a complete filter, but allows me to see the extra errors/warnings.
