I just sent the ltp patch, the last remaining target piece. What remains is
eliminating the undercover usage of host python2 at build time (I am now
running test builds to determine what needs fixing), and then dropping py2
from self-hosted packagegroup and HOSTTOOLS. Once we're there, we can
remove py2 recipes from oe-core (which will probably happen after 3.0 is
out).
