Require nibabel >= 5.3.1 (fixes issues with enhanced DICOMs), and drop Python 3.8 support

[bpinsard]

to avoid a bunch of enhanced dicoms issues, notably through dcmstack.
eg.

dcmstack.dcmmeta.InvalidExtensionError: The extension is not valid: Missing required base classification time

should be fixed.

looks like nibabel drop 3.8 support, should heudiconv do the same? @yarikoptic

I guess we could.

• chore!: drop support and testing for EOLed Python 3.8 #801

remind me -- why we did not have that issue before? if that is just a buggy singular nibabel version - we better just exclude that one

[bpinsard]

Forgot to note the version that was causing this issue before upgrading, but has been there for a while #455 (comment) and my environment wasn't that old. Also we had nipy/nibabel#1378 recently merge that solved failing tests.

[yarikoptic]

well, this is a fresh version released not even a month ago. Some distributions might not have it yet, and would cause troubles. I would just keep in mind that a recent nibabel is needed for processing enhanced dicoms?

May be even get some "catch all" handler that if exception happens and nibabel is below this version -- recommend upgrading?
