Remove 2.7 pointers from downloads pages

See original GitHub issue

2.7 is approaching 3 years out of support, I think it’s time to stop pointing to it explicitly from the downloads page(s). Historical release pointers should remain, of course, but things like the Looking for Python 2.7? See below for specific releases note and the 2.7 entry in the “Active Python Releases” table on https://www.python.org/downloads/, as well as the Latest Python 2 Release - Python 2.7.18 link at the top of, e.g., https://www.python.org/downloads/source/ could be removed or reworded to make clearer that, at least from our perspective, 2.7 really has joined the choir invisible.

I agree. Since we don’t support it, I think putting it in “Active Python Releases” is misleading. It’s not active to us.
