6.0.0 beta 0

The first public build of plotext 6, a rewrite of the package around one master figure and a new drawing kernel written in C++.

Install it with:

pip install --pre plotext

Plain pip install plotext keeps giving 5.3.2, this being a beta.

• the documentation covers every plot type step by step
• the change log lists what changed since 5.3.2, section by section
• the future plan collects the open ideas

Version 5 code will not run unchanged: plots are now methods of plotext.figure, drawn through figure.draw(). The change log names every replacement.

Reports of anything broken, on any system, are very welcome.
