This release has some compatibility fixes for Python 3.11 but it may
still have some quirks. Some tests are still flaky in the CI.

.. attention::

This is the last :doc:aiohttp <index> release tested under
Python 3.6. The 3.9 stream is dropping it from the CI and the
distribution package metadata.
