Applied, thanks! I moved this closer to the "python-flake8" expression
so it's easier to locate in the source code. Also added the python2
variant on this and others where applicable.

I did remove python-flake8 from propagated-inputs too. While required by
this package, AFAIU from the description, it's designed to be used with
different flake versions, so propagating one may cause conflicts.
