doc: The REST API can now be used with Django < 1.8
The release notes stated that the REST API was only compatible with Django 1.8. However, with the merge of commit '646366cc', this is no longer the case. We would rather people didn't use these older versions of Django, but let's not lie. Signed-off-by: Stephen Finucane <stephen@that.guru>
