setup: drop support for Python 2.6 (BC)
Per discussion on the mailing list and elsewhere, we've decided that
Python 2.6 is too old to continue supporting. We keep accumulating
hacks/fixes/workarounds for 2.6 and this is taking time away from
more important work.
So with this patch, we officially drop support for Python 2.6 and
require Python 2.7 to run Mercurial.
