SyntaxError while setting up Python dependencies #375
Description
Since a couple of days (?), I'm seeing this in my runs:
Setup Python dependencies
/home/runner/work/_actions/github/codeql-action/v1/python-setup/install_tools.sh
[...]

+ curl --location --fail https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

/usr/bin/python2

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Warning: Unable to download and extract the tools needed for installing the python dependencies. You can call this action with 'setup-python-dependencies: false' to disable this process.
This is probably due to pip dropping support for Python 2 recently.
Given that Python 2 support seems to be optional, maybe it'd be a good time to drop it, given that Python 2 has been declared end-of-life over a year ago?
