In Python 3, the base64.b64decode function raises binascii.Error (a ValueError
subclass) when it finds incorrect padding. In Python 2 it raises TypeError.
Callers should usually handle ValueError; unless they are specifically
concerned with handling base64 padding issues).
In some cases, callers should handle ValueError:
- ipalib.pkcs10 (get_friendlyname, load_certificate_request): callers should
handle ValueError
- ipalib.x509 (load_certificate*, get_*): callers should handle ValueError
In other cases ValueError is handled:
- ipalib.parameters
- ipapython.ssh
- ipalib.rpc (json_decode_binary - callers already expect ValueError)
- ipaserver.install.ldapupdate
Elsewhere no error handling is done, because values come from trusted
sources, or are pre-validated:
- vault plugin
- ipaserver.install.cainstance
- ipaserver.install.certs
- ipaserver.install.ipa_otptoken_import

the patch fixes regression in ipa-restore caused by overwriting /etc/passwd,
/etc/shadow and fiends during restore of authconfig configuration files. These
files are now excluded from authconfig backup dir.

In Python 3, `print` is no longer a statement. Call it as a function
everywhere, and include the future import to remove the statement
in Python 2 code as well.

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.
