Sunsetting Python 2 support

See original GitHub issue

We should set a timeline for dropping Python 2 support per https://python3statement.org

We barely test vtki on Python 2 and outright do not support Python 2 on Windows - setting a timeline for officially not supporting Python 2 on all OS would help clean up some code and build scripts.

This might have implications for the conda and PyPI deployments - is there a way we could let those vendors know not to allow installing vtki on Python 2?

I still have to test for Python2.7 as well, so between the two of us we’ll at least be able to catch most code breaking bugs.
