Please explain in detail what this does, and why is it superior to
existing tools. What are the typical usage scenarios? Where and how this
should be documented and tested? It is not a good idea to just add
something into scripts/, as no one will know or use it, and so it will
just quietly bitrot.

Bitbake has in fact been compatible with Python 3.x for several
releases. The above check is not particularly useful, as /usr/bin/python
nearly always points to a 2.x version.
