ReedSolo v1.5.1

Changes:

• Add the maxerrata() method on RSCodec class to calculate the Singleton Bound (maximum number of errors and erasures that can be independently or simultaneously corrected).
• Update Readme to detail the Singleton Bound and the limitations of errata detection with error correction codes and add an upgrade notice for pre-1.0 users.

ReedSolo v1.4.10

Major update:

• Universal codecs support (ie, nearly any Reed-Solomon code can be encoded/decoded with the appropriate parameters)
• A RSCodec high-level class with automatic chunking of messages bigger than the Galois Field
• Support for Galois Fields lower or higher than 2^8
• Support for both erasures and errors (can be combined or either can be used on its own)
• A Cython implementation (creedsolo) with the same features as the pure python implementation (reedsolo)
• When decoding, the position of detected errors/erasures is returned, which can be used to make adaptive bitrate algorithms
• Several bugfixes
• Speed improvements
• Extensive unit testing (93% to 95% branch covered)
