Root cause analysis: According to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213814, the method xml.etree.ElementTree.Element.getchildren() is deprecated from Python 3.2 and has been removed in Python 3.9. As a result, we have failure of conversion of some ONNX models, if the Python version is greater or equal than 3.9.

Solution: Replace element.getchildren() with list(element) in the file model-optimizer\mo\back\ie_ir_ver_2\emitter.py.
