Joshua Harlow 3465e0340b Reduce unused tox environments
Since the openstack-ci only tests 5 of the many tox enviroments
we had listed and from my knowledge nobody else is testing using
those other non-standard enviroments just reduce the set of applicable
environments to the ones that are being used (which also means we
can remove the usage of toxgen and just stick with a simpler file
that is easier to use, modify and adjust).

TaskFlow
========
A library to do [jobs, tasks, flows] in a highly available, easy to understand
and declarative manner (and more!) to be used with OpenStack and other
projects.
- More information can be found by referring to the `developer documentation`_.

Testing and requirements
------------------------
Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Because TaskFlow has many optional (pluggable) parts like persistence
backends and engines, we decided to split our requirements into two
parts: - things that are absolutely required by TaskFlow (you can't use
TaskFlow without them) are put into ``requirements-pyN.txt`` (``N`` being the
Python *major* version number used to install the package); - things that are
required by some optional part of TaskFlow (you can use TaskFlow without
them) are put into ``optional-requirements.txt``; if you want to use the
feature in question, you should add that requirements to your project or
environment; - as usual, things that required only for running tests are
put into ``test-requirements.txt``.
Tox.ini
~~~~~~~
Our ``tox.ini`` file describes several test environments that allow to test
TaskFlow with different python versions and sets of requirements installed.
Please refer to the `tox`_ documentation to understand how to make these test
environments work for you.
Developer documentation
-----------------------
We also have sphinx documentation in ``docs/source``.
