Add UCS-2 builds of Python to the docker image

 The images currently contain:

 - Devel packages for all the libraries that PEP 513 allows you to
   assume are present on the host system
 - The `auditwheel <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/auditwheel>`_ tool
 
+The "soabi flags" used in naming CPython version directories under ``/opt`` are
+`PEP 3149 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3149/>`_ ABI flags. Because
+wheels created using a CPython (older than 3.3) built with
+``--enable-unicode=ucs2`` are not compatible with ``--enable-unicode=ucs4``
+interpreters, CPython 2.X builds of both UCS-2 (flags ``m``) and UCS-4 (flags
+``mu``) are provided in ``/opt`` since both are commonly found "in the wild."
+Other less common or virtually unheard of flag combinations (such as
+``--with-pydebug`` (``d``) and ``--without-pymalloc`` (absence of ``m``)) are
+not provided.

 It'd be good to put an example of how to use these images here, but
 that isn't written yet. If you want to know, then bug us on the
