Scott Sanderson 8e59d12daf ENH: Pipeline API
- Adds `zipline.pipeline.Pipeline`, a new user-facing class for managing
  pipelines of Modeling API expressions.

- Adds `attach_pipeline` and `drain_pipeline` as API methods

- Removes `add_factor` and `add_filter` as API methods.  These have been
  replaced two new methods on `Pipeline`: `add`, and `apply_screen`.

- Adding a `Filter` as a column no longer implicitly truncates rows from
  the Modelling API output.  It simply causes a new column, of dtype
  `bool` to show up in the output. Removal of rows is now handled by the
  new `apply_screen` method of `Pipeline`.

- Refactors the existing Modeling API tests to reflect the new APIs.
