Add a cache interface which supports expirable entries with a changeable
backend for the cache into which they are entered.
The default cache is a `dict` but could swapped for
`cachetools.LRUCache` or any other cache which supports `__get__`,
`__set__`, and `__del__`.
So that consumers can change the use of `CachedObjects` stored in a
cache from:
```
self._cache = {}
...
try:
obj = self._cache[key]
try:
return obj.unwrap(dt)
except Expired:
pass
except KeyError:
pass
...
self._cache[key] = CachedObject(value, new_expiration)
```
to:
```
self._cache = ExpiringCache(LRUCache(maxsize=6))
...
try:
return self._cache.get(key, dt)
except KeyError:
# Get fresh value
...
self._cache.set(key, value, new_expiration)
```
Renames zipline.utils.test_utils to zipline.testing
Adds zipline.testing.fixtures.ZiplineTestCase to manage setup and
teardown and adds mixins to define fixtures like an asset finder or
trading calendar.

loaders
This allows people to set their cutoff time to the time they will
actually execute 'before_trading_start'. Currently this is just passed
to the constructor of the loader; however, I would like to make this
managed by the algorithm simulation runner. This would help keep all of
the loaders in sync and lock 'before_trading_start's execution to the
time the data is queried for.
EarningsCalendar loader.
- Moves most of AdjustedArray back into Python. The window iterator is
the only part that's performance-intensive.
- Adds a bootleg templating system for creating specialized versions of
AdjustedArrayWindow for each concrete type we care about.
- Adds support for differently dtyped terms in pipeline. This allows us
to use datetime64s which are needed in the EarningsCalendar.
- Adds EarningsCalendar dataset for the next and previous earnings
announcements in pipeline.
- Adds in memory loader for EarningsCalendar.
- Adds blaze loader for EarningsCalendar.
