[Bug 1958720] [NEW] python3-yaml and python-is-python2 are not co-installable in jammy

The packages python3-yaml and python-is-python2 are not co-installable
in jammy and I believe they should be.  This currently prevents me from
upgrading one of my machines from focal to jammy.

Further analysis with the help of Stefano Rivera revealed that what-is-
python no longer produces a python-is-python2 package and the changelog
hints at that being intentional.  Jammy still has a python2 package,
though.

python3-yaml in jammy breaks on python (<2.7.18).  The python-is-python2
package in focal is version 2.7.17-4 and in impish it is 2.7.18-9 and
thus will be forcefully removed when going to jammy.
