JIT: use bitstrings to compress the lists of read or written descrs
that we attach to EffectInfo. Fixes a problem we had in
remove-objspace-options.
+
+.. branch: cpyext-for-merge
+Update cpyext C-API support:
+ - allow c-snippet tests to be run with -A so we can verify we are compatible
+ - fix many edge cases exposed by fixing tests to run with -A
+ - issequence() logic matches cpython
+ - make PyStringObject and PyUnicodeObject field names compatible with cpython
+ - add prelminary support for PyDateTime_*
+ - support PyComplexObject, PyFloatObject, PyDict_Merge, PyDictProxy,
+ PyMemoryView_*, _Py_HashDouble, PyFile_AsFile, PyFile_FromFile,
+ - PyAnySet_CheckExact, PyUnicode_Concat
+ - improve support for PyGILState_Ensure, PyGILState_Release, and thread
+ primitives, also find a case where CPython will allow thread creation
+ before PyEval_InitThreads is run, dissallow on PyPy
+ - create a PyObject-specific list strategy
+ - rewrite slot assignment for typeobjects
+ - improve tracking of PyObject to rpython object mapping
+ - support tp_as_{number, sequence, mapping, buffer} slots
+After this branch, we are almost able to support upstream numpy via cpyext, so
+we created (yet another) fork of numpy at github.com/pypy/numpy with the needed
+changes
