I think using python-foo.spec for the source and build only python3-foo
package from that is the most consistent way.

E.g. what if python4 appears? What if a package loses python2 support,
rename the spec?  Otherwise what source package name is depends not on
the package contents, but on its history, which doesn't feel right.
