[chirp_devel] Version of wxPython for py3

[Joseph.P.Scanlan at n7xsd.us]

I’m using wxPython 4.0.7.

What function needs to be changed?  I’m still learning wxPython.

It seems that the recently added code for maintaining a recently-opened list relies on a function that was present in old versions of wxPython (e.g. 2.8.x) but has been supplanted by a more flexible set of functions in the latest version (i.e. Phoenix).

There is a comment in the recently added developer module related to Phoenix, so I'd assume that it's intended to work under Phoenix. The question is whether that's what we should be working with, or if support for an older version is also required.
