Rob Crittenden 18a8a41580 Improve performance of ipa-server-guard
* Drop support for python 2
* Only import traceback and syslog when needed
* Only import ipaserver.install.certs when the lock is needed
* Only import ipautil when run is needed

For the unsupported operations case this improves performance by
95%

For the supported operations that don't require a lock the
improvement is about 50%.

For the supported operations that require a lock the improvement
is about 20%

When configuring a CA certmonger calls its helper with the
following operations:

IDENTIFY
FETCH-ROOTS
GET-SUPPORTED-TEMPLATES
GET-DEFAULT-TEMPLATE
GET-NEW-REQUEST-REQUIREMENTS
GET-RENEW-REQUEST-REQUIREMENTS
FETCH-SCEP-CA-CAPS
FETCH-SCEP-CA-CERTS

Only IDENTIFY, FETCH-ROOTS and GET-NEW-REQUEST-REQUIREMENTS are
supported by ipa-submit, along with the request options SUBMIT and
POLL.

Which means every time the IPA CA in certmonger is updated
eight calls to ipa-server-guard are made so the savings are
cumulative.

The savings when executing these eight operations is a 73% decrease
(.7 sec vs 2.5 sec).

Ground rules on adding new schema

Brand new schema, particularly when written specifically for IPA, should be
added in share/*.ldif. Any new files need to be explicitly loaded in
ipaserver/install/dsinstance.py. These simply get copied directly into
the new instance schema directory.

Existing schema (e.g. in an LDAP draft) may either be added as a separate
ldif in share or as an update in the updates directory. The advantage of
adding the schema as an update is if 389-ds ever adds the schema then the
installation won't fail due to existing schema failing to load during
bootstrap.

If the new schema requires a new container then this should be added
to install/bootstrap-template.ldif.
