Python 3 Support

I saw this comment in the Reddit thread, so I'm adding this note for posterity.

I looked into it briefly, and the first hurdle is that the google protobuf library does not support Python 3. There are a couple community forks that tried to port it, as seen in this thread:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/protobuf/python3/protobuf/Qalty-PenDA/NM_l7zzjaTwJ

but I was unable to compile either of them successfully (only spent a few minutes trying). I think they may be using an older version of protobuf (those two repos are a few months old with no updates).

There might only need to be minimal changes to skadi itself to get it working in Python 3, but the protobuf hurdle might be large enough to just close this as wontfix until google releases a Python 3 version of protobuf (if ever)

On second thought, I might submit an issue to him with my compile error and see if he has any thoughts

Marking this a wontfix, tentatively.
