Remove xlsx mention from the xlrd section

[xmo-odoo]

xlrd removed xlsx support with the 2.0 release (https://xlrd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changes.html), from 2.0 onwards it only supports the legacy binary file formats.

Thanks for that. The section being updated is intended as a direct quote from the xlrd docs so it should be modified to reflect that.

Or the xlrd section could be dropped altogether. I'll think about that.

Thanks for that. The section being updated is intended as a direct quote from the xlrd docs so it should be modified to reflect that.

It's pretty much the blurb that's on python-excel:

This package is for reading data and formatting information from older Excel files (ie: .xls)

(I copied the wording from xlwt so that makes sense)

Or the xlrd section could be dropped altogether. I'll think about that.

I think keeping the section makes sense: xlwt is used to write to legacy excel files and xlrd to read from them. So if you're dealing with legacy excel files, you need either or both.

But that isn't the blurb in the link in the docs:

xlrd is a library for reading data and formatting information from Excel files in the historical .xls format.

Fair enough, there you go.
