Subject: [PATCH] sbe: use python3 for build scripts
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Modern host distros no longer ship python2. The SBE build invokes
python2 for buildInfo.py / securityRegListGen.py and via
#!/usr/bin/python2 shebangs; these scripts are python3-compatible,
so call python3.
