Wei Liu 83a204e695 pygrub/fsimage: make it work with python 3
With the help of two porting guides and cpython source code:

1. Use PyBytes to replace PyString counterparts.
2. Use PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT.
3. Remove usage of Py_FindMethod.
4. Use new module initialisation routine.

For #3, Py_FindMethod was removed, yet an alternative wasn't
documented.  The code is the result of reverse-engineering cpython
commit 6116d4a1d1

1) Libraries of ext2fs, which is the following package (depend on your Linux distribution):
	- e2fslibs-dev on Debian based distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Linspire, Libranet, Xandros, etc...)
	- e2fsprogs-devel on RedHat, Fedora Core
	- libext2fs2-devel on Mandriva/Mandrake
	- e2fsprogs on Gentoo

2) Libraries of reiserfs, which is the following package (depend on your Linux distribution):
	- libreiserfs-dev on Debian based distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Xandros, Libranet, Xandros, etc...)
	- progsreiserfs-devel on RedHat
	- progsreiserfs on Gentoo
