This change removes the u() helper from bson.py3compat
and all of its uses in the driver and tests. PyPy3 continues
to be supported since, even though it is based on python 3.2.5,
it has always supported the u string prefix.
The README and install docs are now explicit about PyPy(3) support.
In Python 2, objects automatically inherit the __hash__ of their parent
class. In Python 3, objects that override __eq__ do not automatically inherit
__hash__, so these objects were not hashable under Python 3. Additionally,
mutable BSON types and types that overide __eq__ but did not explicitly define
__hash__ had broken __hash__ methods under Python 2. This commit unifies the
hashing behavior between Python versions and fixes the __hash__ methods such
that two BSON objects hash the same only if they are equal.
N.B.: bson.code.Code and bson.regex.Regex are no longer hashable under Python 2
because they are mutable.
Many of the pymongo modules have been moved into the bson
package. Aliases for those modules have been added to the pymongo
package, without deprecation warnings for now. Application developers
should begin to use the bson namespace, as deprecation of moved
modules will probably begin in the next release.
