Peering Manager was originally and still is developed by its lead
maintainer, Guillaume Mazoyer in 2017 as part of an effort to automate
BGP peering provisionning.
Since then, many organisations around the world have used Peering
Manager as their central network source of truth to empower both
network operators and automation.

net-mgmt/peering-manager: Move away from py-dj52-* ports
* The counterparts of the py-dj52-* ports were switched to Django 5.2
in ce59801b72ef, thus move peering-manager to those ones.
* Bump PORTREVISION due changed dependencies.

*: Revise USES=python:... version range constraints
and strip all lower bounds of 3.9 or 3.10 because they are implied now.
python:3.9-X -> python:-X
python:3.9+ -> python
python:3.10-X -> python:-X
python:3.10+ -> python
