Currently this module can only be installed Drupal 8.8 or later. This is understandable, since Drupal 8 includes jQuery UI, but it is restrictive for projects that use jQuery UI and need to support both Drupal 8 and 9. Since the libraries defined by this module don't collide with core's, we should allow this module to be installed on any version of Drupal 8, for greater flexibility.

There was a lot of discussion about this in #3097631: Cannot install with Drupal 9.0.x

it is restrictive for projects that use jQuery UI and need to support both Drupal 8 and 9.

This makes a lot of sense, and the change here will allow modules to require this for 9.x where it's actually needed, while still being installable on older core versions. It's a small and non-breaking change which I think is safe to commit.
