Cosimo Lupo e944f1c92b .travis.yml: update Python versions
Removed unnecessary builds for homebrew and system python.
We only use the official Mac Python distributions from Python.org.
The wheels compiled with those will work on both homebrew Python and
the OSX built-in Python.

Introduction

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.

The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932.

Brotli is open-sourced under the MIT License, see the LICENSE file.
