In part because of this, and in part because of some issues calculating
the initial set of lower-constraints, we have several projects where
their lower-constraints don't match the lower bounds in the requirements
file(s). Now that the check job has been updated with the new rules,
this is preventing us from landing the patches to add the
lower-constraints test job (so those rules are working!).

I've prepared a script to help fix up the lower-constraints.txt
based on values in requirements.txt and test-requirements.txt.
That's not everything, but it should make it easier to fix the rest.

See https://review.openstack.org/#/c/558610/ for the script. I'll work
on those pep8 errors later today so we can hopefully land it soon, but
in the mean time you'll need to check out that commit and follow the
instructions for setting up a virtualenv to run the script.
