Fixed long standing Python 2.7 bug where sys.getfilesystemencoding() would be broken after installing a threaded manhole. See 51.

Improved handle_connection_exec. It now has a clean way to exit (exit()) and properly closes the socket.
Added the connection_handler install option. Default value is manhole.handle_connection_repl, and alternate manhole.handle_connection_exec is provided
Added the connection_handler install option. Default value is manhole.handle_connection_repl, and alternate manhole.handle_connection_exec is provided (very simple: no output redirection, no stacktrace dumping).
Dropped Python 3.2 from the test grid. It may work but it's a huge pain to support (pip/pytest don't support it anymore).
Added Python 3.5 and 3.6 in the test grid.
Fixed issues with piping to manhole-cli. Now echo foobar | manhole-cli will wait 1 second for output from manhole (you can customize this with the --timeout option).
Fixed issues with newer PyPy (caused by gevent/eventlet socket unwrapping).
Allowed Manhole to be configured without any thread or activation (in case you want to manually activate).

Added an example and tests for using Manhole with uWSGi.
Fixed error handling in manhole-cli on Python 3 (exc vars don't leak anymore).
Fixed support for running in gevent/eventlet-using apps on Python 3 (now that they support Python 3).
Allowed reinstalling the manhole (in non-strict mode). Previous install is undone.
