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

- moved simplification strategies from lbmpy to pystencils
- better notebook display for simplification reports
- additional demo and documentation

- version with weights in the entropy denominator

Although expressions have args and function as a tree, args cannot be
modified. So tree-transformations are not possible.
Sympy has subs function, however it replaces all matched in any
subexpression, of the expression (i.e. not only in args but in args args
and so on).
