Drop Kedro 17 (#1669)

Kedro-viz should always support last 2 versions of Kedro. Given that Kedro 19 is releasing soon, we can stop supporting Kedro 17 from Kedro-viz 7.0.0 and only support Kedro>18

 Before launching a development server with a real Kedro project, you'd need to have [Python](https://www.python.org/)(>=3.8) installed. We strongly recommend setting up [conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/) to manage your Python versions and virtual environments. You can visit Kedro's [guide to installing conda](https://docs.kedro.org/en/latest/get_started/install.html#create-a-virtual-environment-for-your-kedro-project) for more information.
 
 The Kedro-Viz repository comes with an example project in the `demo-project` folder. This is used on the [public demo](https://demo.kedro.org/). To use it in your development environment, you need to install both the Kedro-Viz dependencies and a minimal set of dependencies for the demo project:
