release 1.42

Release 1.42 for Python:

• added test-requirements.txt

release 1.41

• support for python 3.11 added (__getstate__ behavior change)
• replaced travis CI by Github actions

release 1.40

Added "bytes_repr" option to serializer to serialize byte arrays into their Python bytes repr escaped form.
(also added BytesNode to the parser where it directly deserializes into a byte array)

This can be more convenient than having to deal with base-64 encoded bytes, but the serialized data is usually about twice as large and it is slower to process.

release 1.30.2
