Minor features

• Drop table name from VACUUM command in SQLiteConnection: SQLite doesn't vacuum a single table and SQLite 3.15 uses the supplied name as the name of the attached database to vacuum.
• Remove driver keyword from RdbhostConnection as it allows one driver rdbhdb.
• Add driver keyword for FirebirdConnection. Allowed values are 'fdb', 'kinterbasdb' and 'pyfirebirdsql'. Default is to test 'fdb' and 'kinterbasdb' in that order. pyfirebirdsql is supported but has problems.
• Add driver keyword for MySQLConnection. Allowed values are 'mysqldb', 'connector', 'oursql' and 'pymysql'. Default is to test for mysqldb only.
• Add support for MySQL Connector (pure python; binary packages are not at PyPI and hence are hard to install and test).
• Add support for oursql MySQL driver (only Python 2.6 and 2.7 until oursql author fixes Python 3 compatibility).
• Add support for PyMySQL - pure python mysql interface).
• Add parameter timeout for MSSQLConnection (usable only with pymssql driver); timeouts are in seconds.
• Remove deprecated ez_setup.py.

Drivers (work in progress)

• Extend support for PyGreSQL driver. There are still some problems.
• Add support for py-postgresql PostgreSQL driver. There are still problems with the driver.
• Add support for pyfirebirdsql.There are still problems with the driver.

Bug fixes

• Fix MSSQLConnection.columnsFromSchema: remove ( and ) from default value.
• Fix MSSQLConnection and SybaseConnection: insert default values into a table with just one IDENTITY column.
• Remove excessive NULLs from CREATE TABLE for MSSQL/Sybase.
• Fix concatenation operator for MSSQL/Sybase (it's +, not ||).
• Fix MSSQLConnection.server_version() under Py3 (decode version to str).

Documentation

• The docs are now generated with Sphinx.
• Move docs/LICENSE to the top-level directory so that Github recognizes it.

Tests

• Rename py.test -> pytest in tests and docs.
• Great Renaming: fix pytest warnings by renaming TestXXX classes to SOTestXXX to prevent pytest to recognize them as test classes.
• Fix pytest warnings by converting yield tests to plain calls: yield tests were deprecated in pytest.
• Tests are now run at CIs with Python 3.5.
• Drop Circle CI.
• Run at Travis CI tests with Firebird backend (server version 2.5; drivers fdb and firebirdsql). There are problems with tests.
• Run tests at AppVeyor for windows testing. Run tests with MS SQL, MySQL, Postgres and SQLite backends; use Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5, x86 and x64. There are problems with MS SQL and MySQL.
