Universal package manager library (Python 3)

Often, scripts need to install system dependencies using the native package manager of the user's OS. Typically, this is solved by having some bash script that runs apt-get, assuming the user is on Ubuntu. Smarter scripts use hand crafted code to detect the user's platform and aggregate a set of dependencies on a few of the more popular platforms. This approach is different:

 - pako install libgdbm-devel sdl2-dev

On Ubuntu, this command will run:

 - sudo apt-get install -y libgdbm-dev libsdl2-dev

However, on Solus, this will run:

 - sudo eopkg install -y gdbm-devel sdl2-devel

Works as follows:

 - Parse package format (devel/debug/normal library or executable)
 - Look up package managers that exist in PATH
 - Format parsed package with common package convention of package manager

This package installs the binary for Python 3.
