[Python-modules-team] python-requests backport

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

FWIW IIRC requests 1.x is not (fully) backward compatible with 0.12.x we
have in wheezy.

It would be nice to know if it would break any of the reverse
dependencies if backport gets uploaded (may be add NEWS entry to make it
obvious happen someone pull it from backports)

$> apt-cache rdepends python-requests
python-requests
Reverse Depends:
  python-glance
  dosage
  cloud-init
  python-ceilometer
  python-novaclient
  python-keystoneclient
  python-glanceclient
  python-cinderclient
  pybit-client
