pyjwt 2.0.0 is not compatible with Python 3.5

See original GitHub issue

Summary

pyjwt 2.0.0 is using a syntax only valid in Python 3.6 onwards that breaks Python 3.5 support.

Possible resolutions would be indicating version 2.0.0 available for Python 3.6 onwards in https://github.com/jpadilla/pyjwt/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md.

Ref: https://github.com/PyGithub/PyGithub/issues/1796

Expected Result

Actual Result

            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Reproduction Steps

Run the following code in Python 3.5 will fail:

def decode(
    self,
    jwt: str,
    key: str,
    algorithms,
    options,
    **kwargs,
) -> str:
	pass

  File "<stdin>", line 7
    **kwargs,
            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> ) -> str:
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    ) -> str:
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

In comparison, the following code will run in Python 3.5:

def decode(
    self,
    jwt: str,
    key: str,
    algorithms,
    options,
    **kwargs
) -> str:
	pass
