- windows support
- automatic caching and creation of shared library with all generated kernels
- restrict keyword and function prefixes are preprocessor macros now -> easier to generate one code for linux, cuda, windows

- due to unordered containers  the same method could produce different but functionally equivalent code
- this behaviour is bad for caching

-> switched to ordered containers

This commit makes the Python code backwards compatible down to Python 2.7. Previously it would only run on Python 3.5 and up.

Problems fixed included:
- `time.perf_counter()` doesn't exist
- all classes need to be new-style
- `functools.lru_cache` doesn't exist
- only the last argument to a function call can be `*`-expanded
- the `nonlocal` keyword doesn't exist
- metaclasses are used with a different syntax
- `yield from` doesn't exist
- `tempdir.TemporaryDirectory` doesn't exist
- iterators need a `next()` method

- check that fixed size kernels are called with arrays of the correct size
- checks that layout of compilation matches runtime layout
- not allowed any more to mix fixed & and variable sized fields in a kernel

- added sphinx files for documentation generation
- collected kernel creation functions in new "cpu" and "cudagpu" modules
