Description

cqlsh -e no longer works on trunk after the introduction of python 3 support (CASSANDRA-10190). Examples below.

$ ./bin/cqlsh -e 'select * from foo;'
Usage: cqlsh.py [options] [host [port]]

cqlsh.py: error: ‘CHANGES.txt' is not a valid port number.

$ ./bin/cqlsh -e 'select id from foo;'
Usage: cqlsh.py [options] [host [port]]

cqlsh.py: error: 'from' is not a valid port number.
