Drop Python2.7 support

See original GitHub issue

As noted by #1094, VFX platform 2019 is the last VFX platform that includes python 2.7. This issue is to prepare for when we drop python 2.7 support.

update check in setup.py:
update README.md
update files that reference 2.7, especially places marked # python2 or # python 2.7 (this is a rough list from grep)

@JeanChristopheMorinPerso great suggestion. It sounds like we want to do this after making release 0.15.0.
