If Sphinx is Python 3-only, Sphinx's tooling should be Python 3-only
too.

There were two used:

- print_function
- absolute_import

Both of these are mandatory in Python 3.0 onwards [1] and can therefore
be removed...mostly. Unfortunately, mypy is still running in Python 2.7
mode, meaning we need the 'print_function' future wherever we're calling
'print' with the 'file' argument. There's also a single
'absolute_import' future that must be retained as its removal breaks a
test for as-yet unknown reasons.  TODOs are added to resolve both issues
in the future.

In Python 3, all classes are new-style classes. The object in the
definition is redundant and unnecessary.
