This will let us use (basic) yield from behavior from Python 2. This
isn't complete, and is low-hanging fruit for others willing to hack
on hy.
I've also changed the macrosystem to allow for proper bootstrapping.
This is similar to how it's done elsewhere in the codebase (stdlib
stuff).
Updated most methods to replace While with For, and added tons of new tests
for things like (cycle []) and lists with None's in them.
thanks @olasd
Add set of new core functions
Add set of new core functions to the stdlib.
Moved the auto-import code from compile_expression to
HySymbol so that "even?' in this style expression will
be found and imported.
(list (filter even? [1 2 3 4 5]))
The core functions are documented in 2 sections, one
for basic functions like (even?..) and (nth ...) and
one for all the sequence functions.
Update: This removes all the caching decorators, misnamed as
'lazy-seq' from the core. All sequence methods now just use
yield to return a generator, so they are Python-lazy
Further refinements of core functions
Cleaned up the docs to use 'iterator' instead of 'generator'
Fixed drop to just return the iterator instead of an extra
yield loop. But also added a test to catch dropping too
many.

This will let us implement common functions seen in other lisps,
and allow them to be importable, without explicit imports. The goal
is to keep this as small as we can; we don't want too much magic.
I've added `take' and `drop' as examples of what we can do.
A macro is available in the module where it was defined and
in any module that does a require of the defining module.
Only macros defined in hy.core are globally available.
Fixes#181
We can know use any amount and type of bytes to build a HyString, meaning we
can use Unicode and UTF-8 for our function and variables.
Eat that, snake!
