Python 2.7 EOL is arriving on 2020-01-01: https://pythonclock.org/
This will allow us to use Python 3 only libraries, like python-barcode,
which can maintain a reduced, simpler codebase, due to only one version
to support.
Closes#371.

The version string is in the module as __version__ available.
In the doc the version will be automatically parsed. The version comes
from the installed module if on read the docs or directly from
setuptools_scm if you are working locally.
The CLI will issue the version string if you call it with the option
'version'. The CLI does not accept commands like '--version', since this
would not be conform with the rest of the interface (and argparse).
The configuration for loading the version-string is adapted from
pimutils/vdirsyncer. It autogenerates a version string setuptools_scm at
install-time and then adds it to the __version__ member in __init__.py
I adapted the GitHub-template with a fitting comment and bumped the
changelog.
