I've been working with the doc build recently and I think I would like to
change the 'sbuild' logic to just directly call python, e.g. 'python3 -m
sphinx' which I have been using in testing for various reasons and I like
it, primarily because the lack of dependency on /usr/bin/sbuild means
Sphinx can be installed purely via 'pip install --user' which gets around a
number of local system dependencies. I think getting this is worth forcing
documentation building to require Python 3, in light of the 2.7 EOL in the
not all that distant future.
