This goes rather farther than #1456, which is for bumping this number just to 5.0. This is OK; we recently bumped zulip-mobile to use 7.0, in the v27.235 release.
zulip-mobile shows a "nag banner" to nudge server admins to upgrade. As of v27.235 (PR zulip/zulip-mobile#5922), that banner appears on 7.x servers, the latest 7.x having recently aged out of our 18-month support window. So we should feel comfortable nudging this number in zulip-flutter to 8.0 once v27.235 has been out for a little while.
