What this PR does / Why we need it:

This PR updates the pylib/README.asc to use publicly available python:X.Y-slim Docker images for cqlsh testing, replacing the previous custom Docker build approach. It follows the reviewer's recommendation to simplify testing for users.

Changes:

  • Replaced custom Dockerfile instructions with python:slim commands.
  • Included the --net="host" fallback for Linux users.
  • Updated the Python requirements to reflect the dropped support for Python 2.7 in the 4.1 branch.
