- Added type hinting (for now, 3.5-compatible)
- Split `db` namespace into `db` module and `model` namespace
- Changed elastic search to be created lazily for each operation
- Changed to class based approach in entity serialization to allow
stronger typing
- Removed `required` argument from `context.get_*` family of functions;
now it's implied if `default` argument is omitted
- Changed `unalias_dict` implementation to use less magic inputs
- Don't cache default category in its entirety - cache only its name
- Purge cache on category name changes and default category changes
- Lock records for updates where applicable
Ignored only the rules about continuing / hanging indentation.
Also, added __init__.py to tests so that pylint discovers them. (I don't
buy pytest's BS about installing your package.)
