[Bug 1735162] Re: [SRU] Cannot import basetest in python3

[Robie Basak]

SRU review:

The only code changes add Python 3 compatibility. Since python3-google-
apputils shipped in Xenial, the package was broken as shipped and can be
fixed under SRU policy.

The patch being included here (and in Bionic) has yet to be reviewed or
accepted upstream.

I did notice one issue, but it is non-functional as the type of
_STRING_TYPES and _INT_TYPES (whether a tuple or a raw instance of type)
happen not to matter because of how they are used and I have commented
on the pull request upstream.

Please make sure to test both Python 2 and Python 3 functionality during
SRU verification.
