I think you pretty much have to "brute force" it by taking the 7.2 dump
and loading into 7.1, seeing what errors it generates, then modifying
the dump to get past the errors, lather, rinse, repeat.

I'd strongly recommend finding another web host. There are enough
performance and security issues involved to make it worth your while to
try and find someone who is supporting 7.3. I would tend to think that
anyone still running 7.1.x is either disinterested or not too attentive
to the machines and software under their watch, neither of which is a
quality you want to have in a hosting provider.
