Python 2.6 is required for gyp 

Document the problem (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21155922/error-installing-node-gyp-on-ubuntu) and suggest a solution (use a Python version manager eg pyenv). This is especially helpful for Ubuntu 14.04 which comes with Python 2.7.

## Troubleshooting
### Building on Ubuntu 14.04, gyp, Python
```
gyp_main.py: error: no such option: --no-parallel
gyp ERR! configure error
gyp ERR! stack Error: `gyp` failed with exit code: 2
```
Ubuntu 14.04 has Python 2.7, but gyp requires Python 2.6 (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21155922/error-installing-node-gyp-on-ubuntu)
One solution is to use Copay with a Python version manager for 2.6.
