[OH-Dev] [issue986] Remove oh-bugimporters install hint that's no longer applicable and causes problems

New submission from ehashman <elana at hashman.ca>:

intro.rst in oh-bugimporters contains the following hint (see
http://oh-bugimporters.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html#installation):

"""
Note: If you run into a problem involving Scrapy and “uses_query”, then you are
hitting a bug involving Python 2.7.3 and scrapy. In that case, you should make
the virtualenv again with Python 2.6:

virtualenv -p python2.6 env

After you re-create the virtualenv, you should run the “develop” command listed
in step 4 again, and now you won’t get an error, so you can continue.
"""

A number of people reading the docs have accidentally ran this step as a
required step, which caused serious problems with their virtualenv. We are no
longer supporting python2.6 for this project because scrapy no longer supports
it, so I will remove this info.
