setup: explicitly declare supported Python versions

I think we should probably backport this to 4.2 as well, and do one
more release there that explicitly declares 2.6 support. That way
anyone stuck on Python 2.6 will end up getting the right hg if they
use a modern pip to install. Users can still use `python setup.py`
incantations to attempt installing Mercurial on unsupported Pythons,
including 3.5 and 3.6.

A followup change will switch to only doing our own
Python-version-check logic if we're not being installed by a
reasonable pip.
