Reimplemented ``Frame.to_npz()``, ``Frame.from_npz()``, removing support for object arrays (and pickles) and improving performance.
Added ``Bus.to_zip_npz()``, ``Bus.from_zip_npz()``, ``Quilt.to_zip_npz()``, ``Quilt.from_zip_npz()``, ``Batch.to_zip_npz()``, ``Batch.from_zip_npz()`` and ``Yarn.to_zip_npz()``.
Implemented ``Series.fillfalsy_forward()``, ``Series.fillfalsy_backward()``, ``Series.fillfalsy_leading()``, ``Series.fillfalsy_trailing()``.
Implemented ``Frame.fillfalsy_forward()``, ``Frame.fillfalsy_backward()``, ``Frame.fillfalsy_leading()``, ``Frame.fillfalsy_trailing()``.
Added ``Quilt.equals()``.
``Frame.from_pandas()`` now supports zero-sized DataFrame.
Fixed issue in ``Frame.set_index()`` where ``column`` is passed as ``None``.
Removed ``TypeBlocks._block_slices``.
