3282a84e30 [Python] (scalar) vector reading speedup via numpy (#4390)
* Add numpy accessor to python flatbuffers scalar vectors

* Update python tests to test numpy vector accessor

* Update appveyor CI to run Python tests, save generated code as artifact

* Update example generated python code

* Add numpy info to python usage docs

* Update test schema and python tests w/ multi-byte vector

* did not mean to push profiling code

* adding float64 numpy tests

48dfc69ee6 Port FlatBuffers to Python.
Implement code generation and self-contained runtime library for Python.

The test suite verifies:
  - Correctness of generated Python code by comparing output to that of
    the other language ports.
  - The exact bytes in the Builder buffer during many scenarios.
  - Vtable deduplication correctness.
  - Edge cases for table construction, via a fuzzer derived from the Go
    implementation.
  - All code is simultaneously valid in Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.4.

The test suite includes benchmarks for:
  - Building 'gold' data.
  - Parsing 'gold' data.
  - Deduplicating vtables.

All tests pass on this author's system for the following Python
implementations:
  - CPython 2.6.7
  - CPython 2.7.8
  - CPython 3.4.2
  - PyPy 2.5.0 (CPython 2.7.8 compatible)
