When use `Django-4.2-py3-none-any` and `PyMySQL-1.0.3-py3-none-any`,
django won't load PyMySQL correctly but 4.1.8 is Ok.
Error message is `django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: mysqlclient
1.4.3 or newer is required; you have 1.0.3.`.

Comment (by Claude Paroz):

You might also report this to PyMySQL so as the fake version info is
updated to some more recent numbers
(https://github.com/PyMySQL/PyMySQL/blob/main/pymysql/__init__.py#L120).
