It is possible for integrators to need to check the flanker version being run by the client in order to enable/disable flanker functionality depending on which python version is being run.

Indeed, if the python version is 2.x, any version of flanker should work, however if the version is 3.x, only flanker versions >= 0.9 are compatible.

This patch makes flanker comply with PEP396 [1] and allows for runtime version checking in cases where a hard dependency requiring flanker >= 0.9 is not possible (e.g. optional e-mail validation)

Can one of the admins verify this patch?
