Version 1.3.0

Features

* Installation of helper programs is now provided by a 'cot
  install-helpers' subcommand rather than a separate script.
* COT now has man pages ('man cot', 'man cot-edit-hardware', etc.)
  The man pages are also installed by 'cot install-helpers'.
* Improved documentation of the CLI on readthedocs.org as well.
* COT no longer supports Python 3.2.

Infrastructure changes

* Refactored COT.helper_tools module into COT.helpers subpackage.
  This package has an API (COT.helpers.api) for the rest of COT to
  access it; the helper-specific logic (qemu-img, fatdisk, etc.) is split
  into individual helper modules that are abstracted away by the API.
* Similarly, logic from COT.tests.helper_tools has been refactored and
  enhanced under COT.helpers.tests.
* Renamed all test code files from "foo.py" to "test_foo.py" to
  facilitate test case discovery.
* cot_unittest is no more - use 'tox' or 'unit2 discover' to run tests.
* As noted above, the installation script check_and_install_helpers.py
  no longer exists - this functionality is now provided by the
  COT.install_helpers module.
* CLI help strings are dynamically rendered to ReST when docs are built,
  providing cleaner output for both readthedocs.org and the manpages.
