Python3 support for bin/ycsb

[AKarbas]

I have set python3 as my default version of python, system wide.
As a result, if I run bin/ycsb the program fails and simply states a syntax-error...

Please add the functionality to check if python is compatible and if not, try using python2 command to run ycsb.

-Cheers.

A symptomatic fix would be to change the shebang in bin/ycsb to request python2 from env.
It should be noted that python 2.x is sunsetted upstream. That implies a migration to python 3 would be in order either way.

The simplest fix would be the following patch:

- #!/usr/bin/env python
+ #!/usr/bin/env python2

Anything beyond that will necessarily be more involved. It might be worth checking upstream how YCSB handles the python2 sunsetting.

+1 for the env solution. Please file a PR. #hacktoberfest Clemens Lieb <notifications@github.com> schrieb am So., 14. Okt. 2018, 14:49:
