What does this PR do?

Attempt to clearly de-couple AWS boto and boto3 and outline a clear path for removing the now deprecated AWS boto library.

This is a merger of two previous PR's as I was unable to cleanly separate them while still getting them to pass all the pre-commit and unit testing requirements.

Previous Behavior

  1. Numerous boto modules imported boto and boto3 even if they never used boto, and in a few cases they attempt to use both at the same time (even though they are generally incompatible).
    From boto_iam.py:
        # Using conn.get_response is a bit of a hack, but it avoids having to
        # rewrite this whole module based on boto3
  1. boto3mod.get_connection() has a number of conditionals that will never fail (copy/pasted from botomod). Further more, these conditionals are in a try/except block which tries to catch a boto exception that is not defined in boto3.
  2. The salt.utils.version.check_boto_req() helper function is written in such a way that it defaults to assuming all modules need to use boto && boto3 (even though that is not desired).

New Behavior

  1. Remove check_boto/check_boto3 parameters from salt.utils.version.check_boto_reqs() and require explicit versions (and disallow specifying versions for boto and boto3 at the same time).
  2. Update various boto/boto3 mods to explicitly declare which version of boto they are checking for
  3. Remove unused boto imports from boto3 modules
  4. Rewrite boto3mod.get_connection() to work with boto3
  5. Initial unit testing for boto3mod (no tests previously existed for boto3mod).
  6. Add support to boto3mod.get_region() to attempt to use the local instance region by default, and if that fails to fall-back on us-east-1.
  7. Changes introduced by pre-commit scripts.

A number of boto3 modules contain boto checks and imports, but do not
actually make any boto calls via the boto libraries.
The previous code looks to be a minor change of the boto
`get_connection()` code. In particular, `boto3.session.Session()`
generally does not perform any form of authentication or region
validation, and it certainly does not raise
`boto.exception.NoAuthHandlerFound`.

Have rewritten the code to not attempt to use the old boto 2 module.
Add a simple http request to test to see if the saltmaster is running
within the AWS infrastructure and assume the instance's region as the
default region.  If this test fails then fall-back to the hard-coded
default of `us-east-1`.
This module did not previously have any unit tests defined.
