CodingGuidelines: specify Python 2.7 is the oldest version

In 0b4396f068 (git-p4: make python2.7 the oldest supported version,
2019-12-13), git-p4 was updated to only support 2.7 and newer. Since
Python 2.6 is pretty much ancient history, update CodingGuidelines to
show that 2.7 is the oldest version supported.

- As a minimum, we aim to be compatible with Python 2.7.
- Where required libraries do not restrict us to Python 2, we try to
also be compatible with Python 3.1 and later.
- When you must differentiate between Unicode literals and byte string
literals, it is OK to use the 'b' prefix. Even though the Python
documentation for version 2.6 does not mention this prefix, it has
been supported since version 2.6.0.
