Riza Suminto b581e45286 IMPALA-14606: (addendum) Install Python 3 for RHEL8
The first IMPALA-14606 commit miss to setup Python 3 in fresh RHEL8
machine. This was not caught before because I test using downstream
jenkins and it reuse RHEL8 machine that previously setup with Python 2.

This patch fix the issue by skipping pip install argparse that broke the
script and run setup_python3 instead for RHEL8 machine.

Testing:
- Run full bootstrap_system.sh and buildall.sh in fresh RHEL8 machine.

Welcome to Impala

Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in open data and table formats.

Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:

More about Impala

The fastest way to try out Impala is a quickstart Docker container. You can try out running queries and processing data sets in Impala on a single machine without installing dependencies. It can automatically load test data sets into Apache Kudu and Apache Parquet formats and you can start playing around with Apache Impala SQL within minutes.

To learn more about Impala as a user or administrator, or to try Impala, please visit the Impala homepage. Detailed documentation for administrators and users is available at Apache Impala documentation.

If you are interested in contributing to Impala as a developer, or learning more about Impala's internals and architecture, visit the Impala wiki.
