[jira] [Updated] (AVRO-3162) Update Python CLI Argument Handling

["Michael A. Smith (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3162?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Michael A. Smith updated AVRO-3162:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
Avro python has several modules that use commandline arguments via sys.argv or the outdated optparse library. I propose to replace all of that using the up-to-date argparse library.

Also, I would like to move scripts/avro into {{avro/__main__.py}}, so that {{{{python -m avro}}}} invokes it directly, and so that all the avro python code is in the same directory tree.
