Re-order changelog entries for 4.0.0b1.

Use the buildout to run these tests.

Try to work around zc.buildout's ignorance of setup_requires.

(I wish we had some real Windows developers who cared.  A 24-hour test
cycle is not exactly optimal.)

PyCon 2013 sprint - buildout changes

Pull in the development version of zodbpickle which has recent changes which allow tests to pass at this time.

The close() method is not in the interface and is not provided
by ZEO's implementation.

This uses bytes_as_strings=True option introduced in zodbpickle 0.2 for
this purpose.

This way pickles produced on Python 3 are nearly the same as on Python 2.
There are some slight differences (Python 3 seems to perform more
memoizations which grows the size of some pickles by a couple of bytes),
but they're immaterial.

Now we can use zodbpickle's noload() on Python 3 to scan pickles for
persistent references.  We couldn't do that before, because Python 3
normally pickles byte strings as calls to codecs.encode(u'latin1-data',
'latin-1'), and noload() doesn't interpret the REDUCE opcode involved in
that representation.

Note that when you're pickling byte strings using bytes_as_strings=True,
you have to load them using encoding='bytes' (which breaks instances, so
cannot be used) or using errors='bytes' (which mean some bytestrings may
get unpickled as unicode instead).  I've tried hard to discover every
place that unpickles OIDs and added conversion to bytes in those places.

Applications dealing with binary data be prepared to handle bytestrings
that unexpectedly become unicode on unpickling.  That's the price of
Python 2 compatibility.

Instead, just remove the non-ASCII characters, regaining Python 3.2 compat.
