v0.9.6 Released!

[prkumar]

Added

• Add a new base class, uplink.retry.RetryBackoff, which can be extended to
  implement custom backoff strategies. An instance of a RetryBackoff subclass
  can be provided through the backoff argument of the @retry decorator.
  (@retry should respect 429 Retry-After headers #238)

Changed

• Bump minimum version of six to 1.13.0. (Minimum required version of "six" package doesn't work #246)

Fixed

• Fix @returns.json to cast JSON response (or field referenced by the key
  argument) using the type argument when the given type is callable. This
  restores behavior that was inadvertently changed in v0.9.3. (v0.9.4 breaks the returns.json decorator with type=int #215)
• Remove all usages of asyncio.coroutine in the library code to fix warnings
  related to the function's deprecation in Python 3.8+. (Fix deprecation warning that appear in Python 3.8+ #203)
