Release procedure

A list of steps to perform when releasing.

* Run tests against latest CouchDB release (ideally also trunk)

* Run tests on different Python versions

* Run setup.py build_doc and fix any errors that come up

* Update ChangeLog and add a release date, then commit

* Merge changes from default to stable

* Edit setup.cfg (in the tag), remove the egg_info? and commit

* Tag the just-committed changeset, then update to the tag

* Run setup.py build_doc again to build the docs for inclusion in the tarball

* python setup.py bdist_egg sdist --formats=gztar upload (ideally also 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6)

* Revert the setup.cfg change.
