The final Python 3.5 release was 3.5.10 in September 2020 [0]. This release series is now End-of-Life (EOL).
The only LTS distribution that still only ships Python 3.5 is Ubuntu 16.04, which will be EOL in April 2021 [1]. The meson build system bumped their python requirement to 3.6 for the 0.57.0 release. This patch ensures that OpenWrt can update meson while still relying on the host python.
