There is no specific process or criteria for bumping the minimum
python version, it happens every sometimes - you can probably dig
through git history and read the commit messages for any such version
increases. Doing that should not clash too much with what is in the
set of supported host distributions, e.g. maybe one or two
soon-obsolete distros may not have it, and so installing buildtools
would be required for them going forward, but not more.

Note that sanity.bbclass is not the only place where python version is
checked. There's also a check in meta/scripts/oe-buildenv-internal,
and bitbake/lib/bb/__init__.py
