We're still officially supporting releases as old as 3.0 (2018),
and 3.6.0 was released before the patch-level of all branches,
can we take the chance to EOL some branches after a last release ?

According to https://postgis.net/development/versions_eol/#end-of-life-eol
we're supposed to maintain minor versions for 2-4 years, this would mean
settign EOL flags to anything whose .0 was released before 2021, thus:

  - 3.0 (2019)
  - 3.1 (2020)

So do you agree about doing the following releases ?

  - 3.0.12 (and EOL)
  - 3.1.13 (and EOL)
  - 3.2.9
  - 3.3.9
  - 3.4.5
  - 3.5.4

After that we'd need to update
