Remove inaccurate information from README.Python.

These parts of contrib/python/README.Python are not accurate for
ELinks 0.11.2.GIT:

- It suggests using --with-python=/usr/local, but configure.in treats
  that as equivalent to --without-python and contains a comment:

	# FIXME: If withval is a valid directory append it to PATH
	# so that you can specify one of several Python installations.

- It suggests creating a libpython.so symbolic link, but as of commit
  421d04093a, the configure script no
  longer tries to link with a bare -lpython but rather always appends
  a version number.

If you want to use Python scripting with ELinks add
--with-python to the configure invocation copy hooks.py to ~/.elinks
When your Python installation is your own build, you could give prefix
to the configure, eg.
--with-python=/usr/local when Python binary is placed in /usr/local/bin, etc.
When 'configure' cannot find -lpython make symbolic link to the appropriate
library, eg.
# cd /usr/local/lib
# ln -s libpython2.4.so.1.0 libpython.so
For the present hooks.py is not very usable. You are welcome to make it better.
Good Luck!
