[PATCH 00/13] git-p4: python3 compatibility

[Yang Zhao <yang.zhao@skyboxlabs.com>]

This patchset adds python3 compatibility to git-p4.

While some clean-up refactoring would have been nice, I specifically avoided
making any major changes to the internal API, aiming to have passing tests
with as few changes as possible.

CI results can be seen from this GitHub PR: https://github.com/git/git/pull/673

(As of writing, the CI pipelines are intermittently failing due to reasons
that appear unrelated to code. I do have python3 tests passing locally on
a Gentoo host.)
