Asset nodes now have a new field called "properties.duration_seconds". This holds a copy of the duration stored on the referenced video file and stays in sync using eve hooks.
To migrate existing duration times from files to nodes you need to run the following:
./manage.py maintenance reconcile_node_video_duration -ag
There are 2 more maintenance commands to be used to determine if there are any missing durations in either files or nodes:
find_video_files_without_duration
find_video_nodes_without_duration
FFProbe is now used to detect what duration a video file has.

These changes mostly revolve around the change in ObjectId constructor
when running on Python 3.6. Where on 2.7 the constructor would accept
12- and 24-byte strings, now only 12-byte bytes and 24-character strings
are accepted. Good thing, but required some changes in our code.
Other changes include hashing of strings, which isn't supported, so they
are converted to bytes first, and sometimes converted back afterwards.
Refactor of pillar-server and pillar-web into a single python package. This
simplifies the overall architecture of pillar applications.
