Bug 1183385: Update supybot Requires for python-dateutil

--- Comment #1 from Pete Travis <me(a)petetravis.com> ---
The latest commit to dateutil has exactly one change to setup.py, to amend
dateutil requires to !=2.0 - and the master branch is also not bundling
dateutil any longer:

Allow >= 2.0 versions of python-dateutil

It would be nice to have confirmation about individual supybot plugins, but it
seems safe to infer that upstream is aware of the issues at hand and
comfortable with dateutil as long as it is py2 friendly. I'm flagging for a
release note so that users of myriad supybot plugin users will get some signal.
Also, nothing in the supybot sources itself is actually importing dateutil -
it's only there for the benefit of plugins.
