[dev] Stop testing and updates for CentOS 7 / RedHat 7

Hi there,

I'm planning to stop releasing any new CentOS 7 / RedHat 7 packages and stop
the testing for it.
- No more CI tests on CentOS 7
- No new packages for CentOS 7 / RedHat 7 (not even minor updates or
security fixes)

CentOS 7 is EoL for some time. So far, we still used it for build Redhat 7
/ CentOS 7 packages, but there is now the time where repositories get
removed or moved.
As such, I think the work to maintain this in the CI Infrastructure and
Release Build is too much and I'm considering abandoning it.
This does NOT impact RedHat 8 or RedHat 9.

Please reply if this causes any issues to you or have any other reasons why
this should be reconsidered.

Regards,
   Martin Winter
