Pinned Python 2 CI tests to legacy version of dependencies

[danielmorell]

Description of the change

certifi is a package that helps validate SSL root certificates that we depend on. In the latest release it started using Python 3 syntax. Since we have always been using the latest version, our Python 2 CI tests started failing after the last release of certifi.

This PR pip installs certifi==2021.10.8 if our CI test matrix is testing on Python 2.7. This is not an ideal solution seeing that we will not be using up to date root certificates in our tests. However, that may be a compromise we are willing to make.

it looks good, I think we need to start slowly thinking about stopping our support for python2. we will have a lot more problems with packages in the future.

Yeah. Not having up to date SSL root certs is kind of a big deal. I haven't thought of any great way to solve that.
