Added a button to clear the current session
changed the disposition of the operator buttons, to take up less
vertical space. Now it should be better to fit smaller screens.
Adds some functions to store and load an entire session as a binary
blob.
In this way the user does not need to re-load all the relations from the
previous session.
This is more Pythonic and makes the code more readable.
Backwards compatibility is provided by giving an alias with the
previous name of the class.
It will not be broken until the next major release.
Operations are possible even when the order of the attributes is
not the same. Because ordering is just an implementation detail and
not an actual part of relational algebra.
A _rearrange() function exists to convert relations to have a similar
format and be able to operate on them.
The function would perform a projection in any case, which would cause
the creation of a new temporary relation, even when the relations where
already using the same order of attributes.
This commit fixes the issue by making it return an identity if the
operation is not necessary.
When doing a selection, a new context (in the form of a dictionary)
is created.
Instead of re-using the same dictionary re-assigning the values, now
use a comprehension to avoid redundant reads.
Python3 handles encoding differently, and files are loaded
according to the locale set on the system.
This means that when building on a locale-less chroot,
the tests will always fail because it will try to load utf-8
and encode it as ASCII.
This forces the encoding. The tests are encoded in utf-8 anyway
so any other encoding set by the locale would cause a failure.
In this way, checks are performed automatically on every tuple
and code is simplified.
This should make it safer to raise exceptions on files that are
not relations.
By default when loading a file, a relation with the same name is
created.
Now, if the filename is not a valid relation name, the user will be
prompted to manually insert a relation name.
De-duplicated code for doing this when a new relation is created.

save space when they had to include a 5MiB library that is used
by everything.</rant>
