[oslo] [tooz] Why does not tooz's tox env use upper-constraints?

Hello,

I don't know the reason behind this choice, however, you should notice that
tooz became an independent project a few weeks ago [1].

Usually independent projects (at least those under the Oslo scope) are not
using U.C (e.g pbr by example). So, by taking account of the independent
model, I wonder if we need a UC at this point.

Any opinions or thoughts?
