With the upcoming update of GitHub's ubuntu-latest Actions runners to ubuntu-26.04, Python 3.8 will no longer be available to install with actions/setup-python. See this example run:

⏵ Run actions/setup-python@v7
⏷ Installed versions
  Version 3.8 was not found in the local cache
  Error: The version '3.8' with architecture 'x64' was not found for Ubuntu 26.04.
  The list of all available versions can be found here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/actions/python-versions/main/versions-manifest.json

We already run Python 2.7 and 3.7 tests in a container, so we can move Python 3.8 tests to do so as well.
