Upstream will drop support for Python 2.x on January 1, 2020. This
patch converts the contrib/mklog script to Python 3. The process for
the conversion was as follows.
- Use the futurize tool (https://python-future.org ) to apply the
print_with_import, except, and dict transformations.
- Remove the "from __future__ import print_function".
- Change the shebang line to search for python3 in the environment.
- Modify the run() function to return a str instead of bytes.
