[python-committers] changing the python version on the 2.7 branch

[Matthias Klose]

We'll have the 2.7.10 release in the coming months. This will be the first
release with a two digit subminor version number, so please could we prepare for
that early?  Feature tests in python are unfortunately way too often based on
version comparisons.  Suggesting to push the following patch to the 2.7 branch.

The patch also changes PY_RELEASE_LEVEL to "beta" quality.  Currently this is a
value which is not touched on the branches.
