[Python-Dev] Making the status of Provisional PEPs clearer

Hi folks,

After review from Barry & Guido, I've just merged an update to PEP 1
and the PEP index generator that separates out provisionally accepted
PEPs to their own state in the PEP flow:
https://github.com/python/peps/commit/307dda38d4e7a5760dd4979ae9978a4eb1e70589

To date, that status has been reported as "Accepted" both in the
original PEPs and in the main PEP index, now it gets reported as
Provisional in both places.

Cheers,
Nick.

P.S. As part of this, I switched the flow diagram in PEP 1 from a PNG
to an SVG, which seems to have confused python.org's image rendering:
https://github.com/python/peps/issues/701

I'm already looking into it, but am open to tips from folks more
familiar with the website's rendering machinery.
