Highlights:
* Performance improvements:
- Faster RTIO event submission (1.5x improvement in pulse rate test)
See: https://github.com/m-labs/artiq/issues/636
- Faster compilation times (3 seconds saved on kernel compilation time on a typical
medium-size experiment)
See: https://github.com/m-labs/artiq/commit/611bcc4db4ed604a32d9678623617cd50e968cbf

* Improved packaging and build system:
- new continuous integration/delivery infrastructure based on Nix and Hydra,
providing reproducibility, speed and independence.
- rolling release process (https://github.com/m-labs/artiq/issues/1326).
- firmware, gateware and device database templates are automatically built for all
supported Kasli variants.
- new JSON description format for generic Kasli systems.
- Nix packages are now supported.
- many Conda problems worked around.
- controllers are now out-of-tree.
- split packages that enable lightweight applications that communicate with ARTIQ,
e.g. controllers running on non-x86 single-board computers.

* Improved Urukul support:
- AD9910 RAM mode.
- Configurable refclk divider and PLL bypass.
- More reliable phase synchronization at high sample rates.
- Synchronization calibration data can be read from EEPROM.

* A gateware-level input edge counter has been added, which offers higher
throughput and increased flexibility over the usual TTL input PHYs where
edge timestamps are not required. See :mod:`artiq.coredevice.edge_counter` for
