Description

According to the documentation on the tool.poetry.dependencies section:

Be aware that declaring the python version for which your package is compatible is mandatory:

However, since v2, it is possible to use project.requires-python to specify the python version and poetry can accept a tool.poetry.dependencies section without a python version specified and can take the python version declaration from requires-python.

Can the documentation be updated to reflect the current behavior?
