Crochet

^^^^^

New features:

* Signatures on decorated functions now match the original functions.
Thanks to Mikhail Terekhov for the original patch.
* Documentation improvements, including an API reference.

Bug fixes:

* Switched to EPoll reactor for logging thread.
Anecdotal evidence suggests this fixes some issues on AWS Lambda, but it's not clear why.
Thanks to Rolando Espinoza for the patch.
* It's now possible to call ``run_in_reactor`` and ``wait_for`` above a ``classmethod``.
Thanks to vak for the bug report.

* If the Python ``logging.Handler`` throws an exception Crochet no longer goes into a death spiral.

* It is now possible to call ``EventualResult.wait()`` (or functions
wrapped in ``wait_for``) at import time if another thread holds the
import lock. Thanks to Ken Struys for the patch.
