[New-bugs-announce] [issue26165] devguide: table summarizing status of Python branches

New submission from STINNER Victor:

A frequent question is to get the status of a Python branch: is it still maintained? when does the support stop?

Attached patch adds a short table giving the current status of Python branches between 2.6 and 3.6 (default).

I sorted branches by their status, nor by their value, to show immediatly that 2.7 is still at the top :-)

For the future end-of-life, I took the year of the last binary release and I added 5 years. Is that right?
