Upgrade minimum version of `google-cloud-core` to 1.4.4

[parthea]

There is a dependency on google-cloud-core>=1.4.1 in setup.py. We should bump the minimum version to 1.4.4. In older versions of google-cloud-core, six was used in the code but was not explicitly listed as a dependency resulting in runtime errors in environments where it is not already installed.

python-spanner/setup.py

Lines 38 to 40 in 498dba2

	dependencies = [
	"google-api-core[grpc] >= 1.34.0, <3.0.0dev,!=2.0.*,!=2.1.*,!=2.2.*,!=2.3.*,!=2.4.*,!=2.5.*,!=2.6.*,!=2.7.*,!=2.8.*,!=2.9.*,!=2.10.*",
	"google-cloud-core >= 1.4.1, < 3.0dev",

This is causing the unit-3.7 continuous build to fail. See build log here
