Version 3.0.1

With version 3.0.1 only the extended ADS functions will be used. This allows to use
the same library functions for Linux and Windows. As a result the pyads.py module has
been removed from the package. Certain older versions of TcAdsDll don't support the 'Ex'
set of functions. If you experience trouble please update your TwinCAT version.

The new version also comes with completely covered PEP484 compliant type-annotations. So
you can conveniently apply static type-checking with mypy or others.

Improved Device Notification handling

callback decorator that handles timestamp conversion of notifications to datetime and value extraction

Minor Bugfixes

• automatic code checking with travis
• remove wildard imports
• some documentation updates
