This is a short release to allow pickle protocol=5 to be used in
Python3.5. It is motivated by the recent backport of pickle5 to Python3.5.
The Python versions supported in this release are 3.5-3.8. Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.15 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid errors on the Skylake architecture.
