Release 3.6.0
Release 3.6.0

Changes from 3.5.3 to 3.6.0
===========================

PyTables 3.6 no longer supports Python 2.7 see PR #747.

Improvements
------------
 - Full python 3.8 support.
 - On Windows PyTables wheels on PyPI are linked to `pytables_hdf5.dll` instead
   of `hdf5.dll` to prevent collisions with other packages/wheels that also
   vendor `hdf5.dll`. This should prevent problems that arise when a different
   version of a dll is imported than the version to which the program was
   linked to. This problem is known as "DLL Hell".
   With the renaming of the HDF5 DLL to `pytables_hdf5.dll` these problems
   should be solved.

 Bugfixes
 --------
 - Bugfix for HDF5 files/types with padding. For details see :issue:`734`.
 - More fixes for python 3.8 compatibility: Replace deprecated time.clock
   with time.perf_counter
     Thanks to Sergio Pascual (sergiopasra). see :issue:`744` and PR #745.
     - Improvements in tests as well as clean up from dropping Python 2.7 support.
       Thanks to Seth Troisi (sethtroisi).
