Check Python version on application launch (#393)

* Check that the minimum required Python (3.8) version is used.

Prints a descriptive error message, rather than a cryptic import
failure, if minimum Python version is not met.

Internal ticket SWDEV-477233.


* Disable the RPM mangling of shebangs.

The are changing the `#!/usr/bin/python3` to `#!/usr/libexec/platform-python`.
With this set, omniperf is always using the platform installed version
of python, which is python 3.6 on RHEL 8. Using virtual environments,
like conda, did not work.

* Fix pylint issues
