Version 0.7.0

Release 2022-05-12

• Add change log
• Correct README example (it works!)
• Correct bug where _asdict, _astuple, _aslist were not added to an empty class
• Allow use of Annotation[type, ...others...] in type definitions
  • Support use of Range in a type Annotation to restrict the range of values allowed for a type
  • Support use of NoPickle, NoJSON, NoIterable to skip fields from pickling, JSON dumping and __iter__ respectively
    • _asdict/_astuple/_aslist will still return ALL values within an instruct-class.
  • The field _annotated_metadata on a class contains a mapping of field_name -> (...others...)
• Correct a bug where Literal[Enum.Value] would erroneously allow a matching non-Enum value if the __eq__ on the Enum was overridden to allow it
  • We now check via is and on __eq__ checks we check the type as well to reject the wrong types
• Upgrade to Jinja2 for the 3.x series!
• Upgrade typing-extensions to 4.2.0
• Mark support as Python 3.7+
