Bug#829744: Add new-package-should-not-package-python2-module tag

Are we sure? The idea is to dissuade the Python 2 module from being
packaged in the first place (on the principle that it is one less to
remove later) rather than to promote that the Python 3 module is
also packaged.

Otherwise this tag's semantics are really along the lines of "don't
forget to package the Python 3 version!" which is already somewhat
implicit in the ecosystem and causes us more work down the road.
