Ian Wienand db87a0845f Set default python-path to "auto"
The "python-path" configuration option makes its way through to Zuul
where it sets the "ansible_interpreter_path" in the inventory.
Currently this defaults to "/usr/bin/python2" which is wrong for
Python 3-only distributions.

Ansible >=2.8 provides for automated discovery of the interpreter to
avoid runtime errors choosing an invalid interpreter [1].  Using this
should mean that "python-path" doesn't need to be explicitly for any
common case.  As more distributions become Python 3 only, this should
"do the right thing" without further configuration.

This switches the default python-path to "auto".  The dependent change
updates Zuul to accept this and use it when running with Ansible
>=2.8, or default back to "/usr/bin/python2" for earlier Ansible
versions.

Testing and documentation is updated, and a release note added.
