[READY] Update documentation of latest python completer

I've just wrote down the first things that came to mind. So any feedback on which part to expand or fix is appreciated. Specifically I don't know if would be useful to the user to know that JediHTTP exists and what it does. I fear that explaining would do more harm than good 😕

### Python semantic completion
Completion and GoTo commands work out of the box with no additional
configuration. Those features are provided by the [jedi][] library which
supports a variety of python versions (2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4) as long as it
runs in the corresponding python interpreter. By default YCM runs [jedi][] with
the same python interpreter used by [ycmd][], so if you would like to use a
different interpreter, use the following option specifying the python binary to
use. For example, to provide Python 3 completion in your project, set:
```viml
let g:ycm_python_binary_path = '/usr/bin/python3'
```

### I hear that YCM only supports Python 2, is that true?
No. The Vim client and the [ycmd][] server only run under Python 2 but if you
work on a Python 3 project then just set the `g:ycm_python_binary_path` to the
Python interpreter you use for your project and you will get completions for
that version of Python.

supports a variety of python versions (2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4) as long as it
runs in the corresponding python interpreter. By default YCM runs jedi [6] with

I hear that YCM only supports Python 2, is that true? ~
No. The Vim client and the [ycmd][] server only run under Python 2 but if you
work on a Python 3 project then just set the |g:ycm_python_binary_path| to the
Python interpreter you use for your project and you will get completions for
that version of Python.
