Breaking Changes

Revert adding base64 methods to aerospike module

These methods have been removed from the aerospike module due to memory errors when they are called:

1. `aerospike.get_expression_base64()`
2. `aerospike.get_cdtctx_base64()`

Course of action

Call these methods from a client instance instead of the `aerospike` module. Assuming `client` is an instance of `aerospike.Client`, the above calls should be replaced by:

1. `client.get_expression_base64()`
2. `client.get_cdtctx_base64()`

Bug Fixes
* [CLIENT-2267] Revert adding base64 methods to aerospike module.

Breaking Changes

Batch methods: stop accepting a tuple of keys and bins

For the following functions:
* `client.get_many()`
* `client.exists_many()`

The `keys` parameter no longer takes in a tuple of keys. It only takes in a list of keys.

In addition, `client.select_many()` no longer takes in a tuple for the `keys` and `bins` parameters. Those parameters only take in a list of keys and bins, respectively.

Course of action:

Change code such as this:
python
keys = (("test", "demo", 1), ("test", "demo", 2))
bins = ("bin1", "bin2")
client.select_many(keys, bins)

...to this instead:
python
keys = [("test", "demo", 1), ("test", "demo", 2)]
bins = ["bin1", "bin2"]
client.select_many(keys, bins)

Expressions: add support for comparing KeyOrderedDicts (new server feature)
