scripts/sphinx-pre-install: add minimum support for RHEL
RHEL 7.x and clone distros are shipped with Sphinx 1.1.x, with is incompatible with Kernel ReST markups. So, on those systems, the only alternative is to install it via a Python virtual environment. While seeking for "pip" on CentOS 7.3, I noticed that it is not really needed, as python-virtualenv has its version packaged there already. So, remove this from the list of requirements for all distributions. With regards to PDF, we need at least texlive-tabulary extension, but that is not shipped there (at least on CentOS). So, disable PDF packages as a whole. Please notice, however, that texlive + amsmath is needed for ReST to properly handle ReST ".. math::" tags. Yet, Sphinx fall back to display the LaTeX math expressions as-is, if such extension is not available. So, let's just disable all texlive packages as a whole.
