Don't use cElementTree on Python 3

tiran · gsnedders · commit 3d62987603ba · 2020-06-10T03:18:31.000+01:00
It's been deprecated and will be removed in 3.9 or 3.10. 3.9.0b1 doesn't have cElementTree. I'd like to bring it back with a deprecation warning to drop in 3.10. See: python/cpython#19921 Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org> Signed-off-by: Sam Sneddon <me@gsnedders.com>
