sbeCompression: add a python3 compatible fallback

In python3.x dict.items() does (more or less) what dict.iteritems() did
in python2.x, but dict.iteritems() was removed in python3.x entirely.
Further, dict.items() in python2.7 is less efficient than dict.iteritems(),
so we attempt to use dict.iteritems(), and if that throws an AttributeError,
(which would happen on python3.x), fall back to dict.items().

Without this change, building with python3.x (python3.5 tested) as
/usr/bin/python will result in the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sbe/src/boot/sbeCompress
ion.py", line 198, in <module>

    sortedList =  sorted(instDict.iteritems(), key=operator.itemgetter(1), reverse = True)
