This will be the last minor version to support Python 3.6 (#1788).

New Features / Improvements

• Add support for streaming with Twitter API v2 (86244c1)
  • Refactor Client and Stream to inherit from new BaseClient and BaseStream classes and add StreamingClient, StreamResponse, and StreamRule

• Initialize Stream.session within Stream.__init__ (80adf5b)
  • Update the user agent based on Stream.user_agent even if Stream.session is already initialized
• Use oauthlib to create code challenge and verifier for PKCE (eb22416)
  • Explicitly specify oauthlib dependency requirement as >= 3.2.0 (fc0d967)
    • Update requests_oauthlib dependency requirement to >= 1.2.0 (dd7e2c9)
