The version numbers in description are wrong. e.g., pytest-cov is updating to 7.0.0. I'll hit retry.

@zhindes @mshafer-NI minimumReleaseAge is not working reliably when there are versions both >14 and <14 days.

pytest-cov 7.0.0 looks like a legit release, so I edited the PR description to match the PR.

BTW the reason pytest-cov bumped major version was that it removed support for automatically tracking coverage of subprocesses. Tests that need that should opt-in to having coverage patch the subprocess module: https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subprocess.html

I don't think this affects any of our tests.
