-------------
Note: This release breaks backwards compatibility.
- Changed the notation of a `connection` to `transport`. This name is more
widely used, see e.g. twisted, or asyncio.
- Removed the direct usage of the transport object in device driver methods.
Now almost all methods use the `InstrumentBase._query()` and
`InstrumentBase._write()` methods.
There are only a few exceptions:
* `slave.srs.sr830.SR830.trace()`
* `slave.srsr.sr830.SR830.snap()`
* `slave.srs.sr850.MarkList.active()`
- Renamed `slave.core.InstrumentBase._cfg` attribute to `_protocol` and in all
dependant cases.
Changes to the `slave.core` module:
- The `InstrumentBase.transport`attribute was renamed to `_transport` to be
more consistent. This avoids shadowing of possible commands and show the
intent that in general the transport should not be used directly.
Changes to the `slave.lakeshore.ls340` module:
- The `slave.lakeshore.ls340.Curve.delete()` method now raises a
`RuntimeError` when called on a read-only curve.
- The `slave.lakeshore.ls340.LS340._factory_defaults()` method does not take
the boolean `confirm` argument anymore. The trailing underscore should be
warning enough that you know what you're doing.
- The `slave.lakeshore.ls340.LS340.columnx` attributes are replaced by a tuple
of column instance.
Changes to the `slave.lakeshore.ls370` module:
- Implemented the missing relay commands `LS370.low_relay` and
`LS370.high_relay`.
