Add support for RPM packages

This commit extends the installation of Python interpreter
from system packages to also support RPM packages (assuming
the playbook is run in an environment with proper repositories).

Also the obsolete note about supporting only Debian distribution
is removed, as the `ensure-python` role already supports other
platforms (via pyenv and stow).

 There are three ways to install the python interpreter:
 
 1. Using distribution packages: This is the default (``python_use_pyenv`` and
-   ``python_use_stow`` are both false``).
+   ``python_use_stow`` are both ``false``).
 
 2. Install using ``pyenv``.
