One extra note: lp-codeimport and lp-mailman are currently stuck on
Python 2 for various reasons, and use lazr.{config,delegates,enum}.  I
don't think this is a big deal - they can just keep pinning older
versions and we can release from a branch if it turns out to be needed -
but it's worth mentioning for completeness.
