Release 20.6 (old branch)

[wsanchez]

This PR is a Klein 20.6 release.

The primary goal for this release is to ship all work that's currently been done with support for Python 2.7 before we drop support for Python 2.7, so that we leave the 2.7 users with the latest available progress.

In addition to incrementing the version, this PR adds a script for automating the release process.

@glyph What is the state of #283, and do you want to land that for Python 2? My inclination would be not to, because it's a big feature branch, and Python 2 users won't benefit from any bug fixes to it.

@glyph What is the state of #283, and do you want to land that for Python 2? My inclination would be not to, because it's a big feature branch, and Python 2 users won't benefit from any bug fixes to it.

It pretty much works, but it has basically zero test coverage, and I don't have a ton of time to work on it right now. I would not want to hold up any releases because of it.

If someone were to really need such a thing on python 2 after the fact, they can grab the version from that branch. But I think the main point with py2 at this point is compatibility, so I doubt anyone interested in building a major new database-backed system with Klein would want to start there.

[wsanchez]

I'm going to drop the idea of getting type hints into this release for Python 2.4 users.

[wsanchez]

@hawkowl @glyph @moshez perhaps you want to look over the new release script.

[wsanchez]

Set the date before releasing.

This looks great! I only had minor notes.

I will probably cargo-cult release.py into Treq since it's a better version of the script I was going to write. Would you mind slapping a copyright/license header on it?

I'm looking forward to the release!

[wsanchez]

@twm I was thinking about factoring out release.py into it's own repo for reuse, FYI.
