Consider removing docutils from dependencies

See original GitHub issue

As far as I can see, docutils package is only required for developing botocore itself and can be left out for botocore users.

I’d suggest considering to remove docutils from package dependencies as it adds significant time overhead to the installation process.

I was also surprised finding documentation utility as a direct dependency of a SDK package. I think the issue is significant, because docutils uses non-trivial license. Parts of it are even covered by GPL3.
