Subject: Flock components python3 migration query on master.

Hello All,

We are working on FM containerization (FM panel in open stack dashboard and backend pod service(fault)).
As part  of this activity, we are doing stx-horizon docker build. Which will include components from flock (for fm calls). As a reference example, please refer to this patch<https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/upstream/+/661423/4/openstack/python-horizon/centos/stx-horizon.stable_docker_image>.
The  front panel would be calling flock components fmclient, cgtsclient, distributedcloud etc.
These components are python2 build.  For FM panel to work we need migration of these components (seeing lot of dependency issues) from python2 to python3 on master branch.

Yesterday(9-Dec-2020) in non-openstack distro meeting, the discussion was flock python2 dependent components cannot  be migrated in master branch and will done in centos8 migration branch/stream.

So, I request for clarity/decision from community on this blocker for FM containerization.

Earlier in stx-3.0(stein's openstack) as in above link, these component were part of stx-horizon docker build. But these were removed(as per patch below) as part of stx-4.0 migration (stein -->train --> Ussuri), as latest openstack only supports python3.

Patch details:

commit b8b897a028cda3936f17c5ac6b73af146c5de96b (tag: v4.0.0.rc0)
