Christoph has ask me to maintain the nvmetcli project. With Ales help I
started to collect patches posted in the last few years. I've setup an
integration tree at github so we can use fancy tools:

  https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvmetcli

Still in the early setup phase but the initial CI worklows start to
work and with Ales help going through the issues found by the fancy
tools:

  https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvmetcli/pull/2

There is also a python-six removal path queued up. When the PR is good
shape I'll post it here once again before applying it to the upstream
repo.

Thanks,
Daniel
