Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * setuptools v36.0.0 was released today, which no longer bundles six, thereby breaking the python plugin (both python2 and python3).
   * The fix is to simply install six before setuptools.

  [Test Case]

   * Simply run one of the many python-based integration tests. For
  example:

         ./runtests.sh plugins test_python_plugin.py

     Without this patch, the test will fail. With it, the test will
  pass.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Potential is low as we have a large test suite with a number of python-based snaps.
   * Pulling in six could potentially conflict with the dependencies of the snap being build, although six was already used previously (it was just bundled with setuptools).
