[PATCH 3/4] requirements: Test older versions of DRF (v2)

In commit febad055fb6609369f1a465a5eec323549c5c065, we attempted to
start testing older versions of Django REST Framework for use with older
versions of Django. This work was later reverted in commit
6f2ddab6e60aac91dac782aeccd2ecd35416c271 due to perceived issues with
django-filter versions.

There are additional reasons for validating older versions of DRF, such
as supporting the versions provide as part of distributions. It turns
out that those issues aren't such a big deal and can be handled with a
shim. All in all, this means we can and should support these older
versions of Django REST Framework, and that is what we'll do.

Note that the minimum version supported in requirements.txt is not
bumped as it's good practive to use the latest available version.
However, that doesn't make it any less supported.
