kdev-python move to extragear -- once more

Hello,

A while ago, I asked for a review of kdev-python, in order for it to
be moved from playground to extragear. There was some (legitimate)
objection about the fork of the python parser code the plugin
contains, which is why the move has not taken place yet, and
kdev-python is still residing in kdereview.

I'm actively working on solving the issue -- chances that a patch can
be applied upstream which enables me to drop the fork are good. [1]
(This would however only apply to future releases of the python 3
version of the plugin, since the patch introduces binary-incompatible
changes upstream which cannot be backported to python 2.)

Thus, I would suggest to move kdev-python to extragear, even if the
issue is not solved yet.
If you disagree, let me know, in that case I must move kdev-python
back to playground and propose it for review again once the fork has
been removed from the master branch. I would however prefer not to do
this.

Thanks and best regards,
Sven Brauch
