[RFC PATCH] readthodocs: fully specify a build environment

[RFC PATCH] readthodocs: fully specify a build environment

[Alex Bennée]

This is now expected by rtd so I've expanded using their example as
22.04 is one of our supported platforms. I tried to work out if there
was an easy way to re-generate a requirements.txt from our
pythondeps.toml but in the end went for the easier solution.
