Description

Impala builds an impala-shell tarball where dependencies are already installed so they can be used with specific Python versions without needing dev tools. Currently they produce 2 builds, Python 2 and Python 3. However native binaries built for Python 3 only work with the specific minor version they're built with (i.e. Python 3.6).

Extend build tooling to support building for multiple Python 3 minor targets.
