existing `limit_price` and `stop_price` parameters. The goal of this change is
to refactor the existing ordering API to provide a cleaner interface for
defining more complex order types.
Adds a new module, zipline.finance.execution, which defines the ExecutionStyle
abstract base class, along with concrete MarketOrder, LimitOrder, StopOrder,
and StopLimitOrder subclasses.
Adds a new `style` keyword argument to the function signature of the `order`
API method, which accepts an instance of ExecutionStyle.
The existing limit_price and stop_price parameters are still supported at this
time, but are converted into the new ExecutionStyle objects before being passed
to Blotter.order.
Raise exceptions when the slippage model returns transactions
that are non-sensical, i.e. those with zero volume, buy transactions
when the order is a sell (and vice-versa), and transactions that are
for a larger amount than the corresponding order.
TODO: After adding a unit test suite that covers just the blotter,
add tests that exercise this logic to that suite.
