When Python 2.6 support was dropped, the NEWS.rst was modified after the
fact in this:

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8651

That's why I modified NEWS.rst in this commit as well.

Since dropping a Python version happens so infrequently, I thought this was
OK to modify NEWS.rst here, since it has been done before.
