flatbuffers 2.0.7

v2.0.7

on Python PyPI

This is a minor release with lots of changes :)

I would like to get in the habit of releasing more often (at least for the flatc and C++ libraries) and the first step is to reduce the amount of diffs between releases (especially patch/revision only updates).

See a high level change log notes in our new CHANGELOG.md document, with the following list auto generated by github release workflow:
