python34: remove

Browse Source 
Python 3.4 will receive it's final patch release in March 2019 and there won't
be any releases anymore after that, so also not during NixOS 2019.03.

Python 3.4 is not used anymore in Nixpkgs. In any case, migrating code from
3.4 to 3.4+ is trivial.

### Deterministic builds
Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6 are now built deterministically and 3.4 mostly.
The Python interpreters are now built deterministically.
Minor modifications had to be made to the interpreters in order to generate
deterministic bytecode. This has security implications and is relevant for
those using Python in a `nix-shell`.
