Upgrade to Python 3

[samsmith]

dependency wsgiref is incompatible with python 3. Alternates seem to be available, possibly in the py3 core library

If we're planning to keep this around, it's worth doing the housekeeping to upgrade Python, Django etc to latest versions. Lots are now quite old / unsupported. Should be straightforward, the app doesn't do anything clever.

• Python 3.x
• Django latest (Incl. convert migrations)
• As a minimum address things with security alerts
• Make sure heroku deployments definitely still work (stop pinning them at 2.x)

in the hackday repo, a bunch of this work has already been done (they replicated it to deploy to heroku). but yes to all

I'm afraid none of the above was done. Requirements were just pinned. As it was

a) a pain
b) upgrading an application is not what anyone wants to do at a hackday as you don't get anything to show for it at the end, which is kind of the point of the whole hackday setup.

Much more suited to a sunny Wednesday morning.
