StandardError was removed in Python3 and instead
Exception should be used.

The six way of doing this is to replace all occurences of "unicode"
with "six.text_type". However, "unicode" is non-ambiguous and
(arguably) easier to read. Also, using it makes the patches smaller,
which should help with backporting.

In Python 3, range() behaves like the old xrange().
The difference between range() and xrange() is usually not significant,
especially if the whole result is iterated over.
Convert xrange() usage to range() for small ranges.
Use modern idioms in a few other uses of range().

In Python 2, map() returns a list; in Python 3 it returns an iterator.
Replace all uses by list comprehensions, generators, or for loops,
as required.

Python 2 has keys()/values()/items(), which return lists,
iterkeys()/itervalues()/iteritems(), which return iterators,
and viewkeys()/viewvalues()/viewitems() which return views.
Python 3 has only keys()/values()/items(), which return views.
To get iterators, one can use iter() or a for loop/comprehension;
for lists there's the list() constructor.
When iterating through the entire dict, without modifying the dict,
the difference between Python 2's items() and iteritems() is
negligible, especially on small dicts (the main overhead is
extra memory, not CPU time). In the interest of simpler code,
this patch changes many instances of iteritems() to items(),
iterkeys() to keys() etc.
In other cases, helpers like six.itervalues are used.

Drop support for pylint < 1.0
Enable ignoring unknown attributes on modules (both nose and pytest
use advanced techniques, support for which only made it to pylint
recently)
Fix some bugs revealed by pylint
Do minor refactoring or add pylint:disable directives where the
linter complains.
