Add soft dependency on httplib2 0.9.0 for cacerts Added the new version dependency only to setup.py which ensures anyone packaging pywikibot provides a version of httplib2 that has no known problems with pywikibot. Updated README for conversion: - Remove mention of simplejson, as it is included in all supported versions of python. - Remove note about unsupported httplib2 0.4.0.
