docs: release: remove stale Project References table

Browse Source 
The table of git/python/ssh/distro versions hasn't been kept up to date
and duplicates information maintained upstream by the distros and
projects themselves.  Drop it, and point the places that referenced it
(python-support.md & requirements.json) at the Ubuntu & Debian release
pages instead.

That said, let's assume we need functionality that only exists in Python 3.7.
How do we decide when it's acceptable to drop Python 3.6?
1. Review the [Project References](./release-process.md#project-references) to
see what major distros are using the previous version of Python, and when
they go EOL. Generally we care about Ubuntu LTS & current/previous Debian
stable versions.

base feels about the proposal.

## Project References
Here's a table showing the relationship of major tools, their EOL dates, and
their status in Ubuntu & Debian.
Those distros tend to be good indicators of how long we need to support things.
Things in bold indicate stuff to take note of, but does not guarantee that we
still support them.
Things in italics are things we used to care about but probably don't anymore.
