AppPkg/.../Python: Clean up and document how to escape the -# option.

Browse Source 
Depending upon the version of Shell you are using, it may be necessary
to escape the '#' character, when using the "-#" command-line option, so that
the Shell doesn't interpret it as the start of a comment.
The escape character is '^'.
Example:
    python -^# -V

* General updating.
* Re-format so that no line is longer than 80 char.
* Add note about escaping the "-#" command-line option.
