Description

Various functions don't exist in Python 3 that did in python 2. This Jira is to fix the use of cmp (which often will involve rewriting _cmp_ as well).

 

Note: there are existing PRs for basestring and unicode ( https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/4697 , https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/4730 )

 

Note once all of the missing names/functions are fixed we can enable F821 in falke8 python 3.
