[Python-Dev] Clarify required Visual C++ compiler for binary extensions in 3.7

[Maik Riechert]

Thanks Victor. I noticed you write "For Python 3.7, the minimum is VS 
2017 Community, minimum installer options:" but then in the table the 
version listed is 2015 or 2017, so the minimum then probably is 2015?

Maybe it should be mentioned on this page (or a separate one) that those 
versions have to be used as well when building binary extensions for Python.
