Scott Sanderson 26fd6fda8b ENH/BUG: Modeling API enhancements.
- Fixes an error where Modeling API data known as of the close of `day
  N` would be shown to algorithms during `before_trading_start` as of
  the close of the same day.  Algorithms should now only receive data
  during `before_trading_start/handle_data` that was known as of the
  simulation time at which the function would be called.

- All Term instances now have a `mask` attribute that must be a `Filter`
  or an instance of `AssetExists()`.  `mask` can be used to specify that
  a Factor should be computed in a manner that ignores the values that
  were not `True` in the mask.

- Changed the interface for `FFCLoader.load_adjusted_array` and
  `Term._compute` from `(columns, mask)`, with mask as a DataFrame, to
  `(columns, dates, assets, mask)`, where mask is a numpy array.  This
  is primarily to avoid having to reconstruct extra DataFrames when
  using masks produced by non `AssetExists` filters.

- Adds `BoundColumn.latest`, which gives the most-recently-known value
  of a column.
