All our supported build platforms have Python 3.6 or newer nowadays, and
there are some useful features in Python 3.6 which are not available in
3.5 yet (e.g. the type hint annotations which will allow us to statically
type the QAPI parser), so let's bump the minimum Python version to 3.6 now.

 v2:
 - Bump the version in docs/conf.py, too
 - Remove the now unnecessary check in tests/qemu-iotests/iotests.py

Should we also warning it in meson.build, cause configure finally shoud be
removed.

Sounds like a good idea for a separate patch (let's do one issue at a
time...).
