1638974 - Convert 'mach mochitest' to run with Python 3

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: Mochitest, task)

Description

[Kris Wright :KrisWright]

mach mochitest still runs with python 2 [1]. We want to convert all mach commands to python 3.

To do this, any dependencies of the command may need to be converted as well as the command itself.

Initial changes to allow mochitests to run in python 3. This works well on Linux,
and almost works on Android. A follow-up will complete the work on Android and
switch mach mochitest over to python 3.

Minor fix to remoteautomation.py: Increment stdoutlen before any type conversions,
to ensure that it accurately reflects the byte offset in the file.

With this last change, 'mach mochitest' appears to run correctly on Android with Python 3:
switch it over to Python 3.
