How can I read 3 bytes as an integer?
Does struct module provide something like that?
I can read in 3 bytes and add an extra \x00 and then interpret it as a 4-byte integer, but that seems unnecessary.

The struct module has no option for 3-byte integers, so I think your idea of appending ‘\x00’ is the easiest way.
