Changed

• Change the default user namespace to basilisp.user (#466)
• Changed multi-methods to use a threading.Lock internally rather than an Atom (#478)
• Changed the Basilisp module type from types.ModuleType to a custom subtype with support for custom attributes (#482)
• Basilisp's runtime function Namespace.get_or_create no longer refers basilisp.core by default, which allows callers to exclude basilisp.core names in the ns macro (#481)
• Namespaces now use a single internal lock rather than putting each property inside of an Atom (#494)
• Refactor the testrunner to use fewer atoms in basilisp.test (#495)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a reader bug where no exception was being thrown splicing reader conditional forms appeared outside of valid splicing contexts (#470)
• Fixed a bug where fully Namespace-qualified symbols would not resolve if the current Namespace did not alias the referenced Namespace (#479)
• Fixed a bug where the quote special form allowed more than one argument and raised an unintended exception when no argument was provided (#497)
• Fixed a bug where compiler options specified via command-line argument or environment variable were not honored by the importer (#507)
• Fixed a bug where private Vars from other Namespaces could be referenced if the Namespace was aliased when it was required (#514)
• Fixed a bug where collections with trailing end tokens separated from the collection only by a comment (#520)
