Create script that can output MongoDB tables into BSON format

      For debugging purposes, it would be helpful for MongoDB to look at the BSON data into human readable format directly from a WT table. Currently the process of making this work, is to use WT dump in hex format and then use the hex_to_bson.sh script on the otuput.
      The script is:

      #! /usr/bin/python
import bson
import sys
import pprint

while True:
    line = sys.stdin.readline()
    if not line:
        print("No data section")
        sys.exit(1)
    line = line.strip()
    if line == 'Data':
        break
while True:
    key = sys.stdin.readline()
    if not key:
        break
    key = key.strip()
    value = sys.stdin.readline().strip()
    print('Key:\t%s' % (key,))
    byt = value.decode('hex')   
    obj = bson.decode_all(byt)[0]
    print('Value:\n\t%s' % (pprint.pformat(obj, indent=1).replace('\n', '\n\t'),))

      Aim:
      Create a python script that will perform both the wt dump step and converting the hex to bson format.
