Why py-spyder{,-devel} depends on py-htmldocs.

Petr,

1) it is a trivial install -- just download and extract -- so
hopefully it's not a big issue. We can always move it into a variant.
2) Spyder has a menu link to go to python documentation, which I patch
to go to the installed documentation. (hence the dependency.)
