As gem5 has started to use Python2 incompatible features, compiling
gem5 in a Python2 environment results in an error.
This commit addresses this issue by raising an Exception when scons
is run in a Python2 environment, and adding a few pointers on how to
install Python3 and on how to use scons in a Python3 environment. The
solution works in a system where both Python2 and Python3 are
installed.

Scons on Fedora 27 imports print_function from the future[1] as a
result of which a gem5 build errors out with a syntax error. Make all
the scons scripts that use the print statement import the print_function
from future and replace the statements with print function calls.

Make site_init.py manage sys.path, and the "default" tool set
PYTHONPATH on any environment that's created. The paths to add are
tracked in a common gem5_python_paths.py.

In an effort to shrink and modularize the main scons files, this
change pulls the scons and python version checking code out of the
main file and into site_init.py which runs before the SConstruct
starts. This will be a place to put really generic code which has to
do with the very fundemental aspects of getting scons to work. Other
checks, like checks for particular tools or particular versions of
tools, will happen in other more specialized files.
