docs: General update for main now using Python 3.9 & misc

* Extend EDCD copyright into 2021 here as well.
* Recommend *against* any attempt at making plugins also work with
  Python 2.7.
* setup.py no longer writes appcast files.  Mention
  edmarketconnector.xml enclosure instead for the url= bit.
* DRY about location of log files, just point to appropriate wiki link.
