fix bug 1467308: Update socorro.lib folder for Python 3

We were dealing with a pytest that captured an expected error. When we
capture the error, there is an explicit assertion of what the error is
doing and its type. We then cast it to a string to make an assertion
about the value of the error. We then found out the behavior of
representing the class name of the error as a string changed between
python 2 and 3. Therefore to solve this we explicitly by capturing just
the value of the tested error and modified our expected error just to
include the error value expected so we could pass comparison test.
Because we already asserted the type of error, and there was a change of
behavior around representing the error type as a string. We resolved the
difference in python 2 to 3 by removing the redundant verification of
the error type.

fix bug 1467308: Update socorro.lib folder for Python 3
Resolved the implementation difference of range() function between
python 2 and 3 by converting the iterator generated in python 3 to a
list for value comparison. Then we used the six library to pivot the
change between the “queue” import between python 2 and 3. Next we were
facing errors in an implementation of converting unicode to ascii for
python 2 and conversely for python 3. We attempted to use the six lib
u() function for the conversion but due to the concise way of stripping
characters for conversion to be used by external database, this solution
didn’t work. We couldn’t find a method to explicitly do this.
(text_types may be other solution if this dent pass review.) But to fix
this problem we added an a conditional check for the version of python
that was being tested at the time.If python 2 convert string to unicode
and then return ascii value. If python 3convert it to ascii, drop
characters, and then convert it to unicode to return value.

fix bug 1467308 update socorro.lib

Addressed review comments. Instead of implicity stripping non ascii
characters using encode(). We explicitly only allow the range of
characters from the ascii table
