Ian Wienand 8662297517 Deprecate dib-python; remove from in-tree elements
We are at the point that all distributions we are building have Python
3, so any tools running in the chroot can assume Python 3 exists.
This makes dib-python redundant; mark it as deprecated and start to
remove it from elements where it is no longer required.

========================
ubuntu-systemd-container
========================

The ``ubuntu-systemd-container`` element uses debootstrap for generating
a minimal image for use by machine containers. In contrast the ``ubuntu``
element uses the cloud-image as the initial base and the ``ubuntu-minimal``
builds an image to be used for hosts.

By default this element creates the latest LTS release.  The exact
setting can be found in the ``ubuntu-common`` element's ``environment.d``
directory in the variable ``DIB_RELEASE``.  If a different release of
Ubuntu should be created, the variable ``DIB_RELEASE`` can be set
appropriately.

Note that this element installs ``systemd-sysv`` as the init system for
18.04+.
