Bitarray

-------------------
* Use `Py_ssize_t` for bitarray index. This means that on 32bit
systems, the maximum number of elements in a bitarray is 2 GBits.
We used to have a special 64bit index type for all architectures, but
this prevented us from using Python's sequence, mapping and number
methods, and made those method lookups slow.
* speedup slice operations when step size = 1 (if alignment allows
copying whole bytes)
* Require equal endianness for operations: `&`, `|`, `^`, `&=`, `|=`, `^=`.
This should have always been the case but was overlooked in the past.
* raise TypeError when trying to create bitarray from boolean
* This will be last release to still support Python 2.6 (which was retired
in 2013). We do NOT plan to stop support for Python 2.7 anytime soon.

-------------------
* add more tests
* C-level:
- simplify pack/unpack code
- fix memory leak in `~` operation (bitarray_cpinvert)

-------------------
* add official Python 3.9 support
* improve many docstrings
* add DeprecationWarning for `bitdiff()`
* add DeprecationWarning when trying to extend bitarrays
from bytes on Python 3 (`bitarray(b'011')` and `.extend(b'110')`)
* C-level:
- Rewrote `.fromfile()` and `.tofile()` implementation,
such that now the same code is used for Python 2 and 3.
The new implementation is more memory efficient on
Python 3.
- use `memcmp()` in `richcompare()` to shortcut EQ/NE, when
comparing two very large bitarrays for equality the
speedup can easily be 100x
- simplify how unpacking is handled
* add more tests

-------------------
* add `.clear()` method (Python 3.3 added this method to lists)
* avoid over-allocation when bitarray objects are initially created
* raise BufferError when resizing bitarrays which is exporting buffers
* add example to study the resize() function
* improve some error messages
* add more tests
* raise `NotImplementedError` with (useful message) when trying to call
the `.fromstring()` or `.tostring()` methods, which have been removed
in the last release

-------------------
* add `bitarray.util.make_endian()`
* `util.ba2hex()` and `util.hex2ba()` now also support little-endian
* add `bitarray.get_default_endian()`
* made first argument of initializer a positional-only parameter
* remove `.fromstring()` and `.tostring()` methods, these have been
deprecated 8 years ago, since version 0.4.0
* add `__all__` in `bitarray/__init__.py`
* drop Python 3.3 and 3.4 support

-------------------
* `util.ba2hex()` now always return a string object (instead of bytes
object for Python 3), see issue 94
* `util.hex2ba` allows a unicode object as input on Python 2
* Determine 64-bitness of interpreter in a cross-platform fashion 91,
in order to better support PyPy
