fa2797808e test: Remove python3.4 workaround in feature_dbcrash (MarcoFalke) dddd1d05d3 .python-version: Specify full version 3.5.6 (MarcoFalke) faa7cdf764 scripted-diff: Update copyright in ./test (MarcoFalke) fa0e65b772 scripted-diff: test: Remove brackets after assert (MarcoFalke) fab5a1e0f4 build: Require python 3.5 (MarcoFalke) fa6bf21f5e scripted-diff: test: Use py3.5 bytes::hex() method (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: Python 3.4 is EOL after March 2019, so switch to 3.5. See https://devguide.python.org/#status-of-python-branches This pull does the following in a bunch of commits: * scripted diff to use the `bytes::hex()` method in place of previous wrappers (`b2x`, `bytes_to_hex_str`, `hexlify`, ...) * Update the build system (gitian and travis) to remove python2.7 and replace it with python3.5 * Another scripted-diff to remove brackets after `assert`. This is unrelated to the python3.5 switch, but a stylistic commit, so probably not worth to split up. The motivation behind it is to avoid asserting on data structures (such as tuples of length one), which never fails: ```py >>> assert(False,) # with brackets >>> assert False, # without brackets SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> assert False # proper assertion AssertionError ``` * And then a final scripted diff to update the copyright headers in the `test` subfolder, since I touched most of the files anyway and it wouldn't make sense to split this commit out into a separate pull.
