Fix python release notes

Browse Source 
The old text was incorrect and came from the 2.0 release. LyX works fine if
the default python interpreter is python 3, as long as python 2 is available
as well.

Building LyX does also work with python 3, but since I did not check all
special build steps with both cmake and autotools, I kept a note about
possible problems.

!!Known issues in version 2.2.0
* LyX needs to be run under Python 2 and will not work properly on systems
where Python 3 is the default binary. See #7030 to know how to fix this
properly, since simple shebang conversion in *.py files will not be enough.
* LyX needs Python 2.7 at runtime. The python 2 interpreter needs to be named
either 'python' or 'python2'.
Building LyX usually works with Python 3 as well, but there might be cases
where it does not work properly on systems where Python 3 is the default
binary. See #7030 to know how to fix this properly, since simple shebang
conversion in *.py files will not be enough.
* If using LyX with Qt 4, it is possible to suddenly get keyboard keys wrong,
and deadlock. To work around the issue, you can disable IBus for LyX by
