Eddie Hebert 37c56b9aa4 MAINT: Use Series throughout for daily returns.
Remove the lists of DailyReturn objects in favor of using pd.Series
to store the return values.

Should make it easier to inspect the values when stepping through,
make the windowing of data to a certain range more facile by using,
and have some performance increases due to removing object creation
and member access.
