Log Message:
Update to 1.1.0:

1.1.0
=====

* Out-of-line API mode: we can now declare integer types with
  ``typedef int... foo_t;``.  The exact size and signness of ``foo_t``
  is figured out by the compiler.

* Out-of-line API mode: we can now declare multidimensional arrays
  (as fields or as globals) with ``int n[...][...]``.  Before, only the
  outermost dimension would support the ``...`` syntax.

* Out-of-line ABI mode: we now support any constant declaration,
  instead of only integers whose value is given in the cdef.  Such "new"
  constants, i.e. either non-integers or without a value given in the
  cdef, must correspond to actual symbols in the lib.  At runtime they
  are looked up the first time we access them.  This is useful if the
  library defines ``extern const sometype somename;``.

* ``ffi.addressof(lib, "func_name")`` now returns a regular cdata object
  of type "pointer to function".  You can use it on any function from a
  library in API mode (in ABI mode, all functions are already regular
  cdata objects).  To support this, you need to recompile your cffi
  modules.

* Issue #198: in API mode, if you declare constants of a ``struct``
  type, what you saw from lib.CONSTANT was corrupted.

* Issue #196: ``ffi.set_source("package._ffi", None)`` would
  incorrectly generate the Python source to ``package._ffi.py`` instead
  of ``package/_ffi.py``.  Also fixed: in some cases, if the C file was
  in ``build/foo.c``, the .o file would be put in ``build/build/foo.o``.
