Enable offlineimap to run with Python 3. This feature is still experimental but
very welcome those days. Thanks Łukasz Żarnowiecki to work on this!

You are all welcome to test offlineimap with Python 3 and report both sucess and
failures.

Maintainers, we now work with a virtual imaplib2. Under the hood, the imported
imaplib2 can be the bundled version or any other (recent enough) imaplib2
provided by the system. If you already package imaplib2 and want to avoid
duplication of code, just remove the bundled version of imaplib2 while packaging
offlineimap and it should work out of the box. Be care, the filenames have
change.
