Pull Request Overview

This PR continues the removal of Python 2 compatibility code by dropping __future__ imports, cleaning up super() calls, and replacing six utilities and custom ensure_* calls with native Python 3 constructs.

• Removed Python 2 shims (__future__, six, ensure_*) across tests and core shotgun.py
• Simplified super() usage everywhere
• Replaced binary/text conversions with native bytes/str and updated payload encoding logic

• New branches handle bytes keys and values in form encoding; consider adding unit tests for encode() that pass bytes and non-str types to ensure correct behavior.
