Support for redis-py 4.x?

[nshafer]

redis-py 4.0.0 was released Nov 15, 2021, now at 4.2.2, but I can't upgrade it because this module requires <4.0:

ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements.txt (line 29) and redis==4.2.2 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    The user requested redis==4.2.2
    django-redis-cache 3.0.1 depends on redis<4.0

I know that Django 4.0 has a new built-in redis cache, but I'm not upgrading from 3.2 LTS until 4.2 LTS is released next year. Any word on updating this package to allow continued support of redis-py?

Thanks!
Nate

@sebleier Are you thinking in merging this to give support to redis>4.0 ? We would need this. Thanks a lot for any update.
