TASK DESCRIPTION
  The cryptography package 0.9+ `__init__` emits a DeprecationWarning
  
  ```Python 2.6 is no longer supported by the Python core team, please upgrade 
your Python.```
  
  This causes our tests to fail, as they check for 'deprecation' in the output 
of pwb tests, and some tests assert that there was only 'one deprecation 
message' after calling one of the deprecated pywikibot functions.
  
  While this message is annoying, the maintainers continue to support Python 
2.6, with many test builds, and they have rejected a request to remove those 
test builds.  See https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/2060
  
  T103769 implemented a workaround for Python 2.6 which pinned the cryptography 
version to 0.8.2.  This will mean Python 2.6 users will face unusual problems 
connecting to some https servers, due to bugs that have been fixed in 
cryptography v0.9+, and possibly even security bugs.
  
  Another solution needs to be found.
