Update note about origins of gettext parser code.

[Jeroen T. Vermeulen (jtv)]

= Bug 299008 =

Way back, our gettext parser code was apparently based on some Python code. I investigated ages ago and found that no meaningful similarity was left (and our code has changed some more since). But a comment still noted the fact.

In this branch I replace this note with one of purely historical interest. I also removed the email addresses of the python code's authors. See Karl Fogel's suggestions in the bug ticket.

No tests, no Q/A, no lint. This is a comment.

I'm not an official reviewer, so not sure this counts, but FWIW: +1 on this change.

review: Approve

This doesn't affect any code, but it is within Karl's voluminous field of expertise so his word is good enough for me. 謝謝您。
