Python wrapper around the FileMaker Data API
When FMS' web server responds with a Bad Gateway error (for example when the Data API is not enabled) fmrest now throws a custom exception to be able to easier catch this situation.
Additionally, when using the context manager, the __exit__ will from now on only perform a logout when a token exists (as a logout would always fail when no token is available).

get_layout() (see metadata parameter), ability to retrieve value list values via get_value_list_values(), ability to control response date format by providing a date_format keyword to get_record(), get_records() and find(). Submitted by @LeJeko in https://github.com/davidhamann/python-fmrest/pull/63
The Server's methods can now take a request_layout argument, where applicable. This layout take precedence over the current Server.layout attribute and is helpful if you want to have a shared Server instance in a multi-threaded app and make sure to have the right layout set before making a request.
Example (using my_custom_layout to get records, even though my_default_layout is set on the Server instance):
>>> print(fms.layout)
my_default_layout
>>> fms.get_records(request_layout='my_custom_layout')
Some methods already had a layout parameter. This parameter is still there and works as before but now throws a deprecation warning. Please use response_layout instead of layout from now on. It has the same effect and is easier to distinguish and more clear to understand.
Note: when configuring a proxy and you're not just using it for local debugging (e.g. a local interception proxy), always make sure you trust the proxy server and use a secure connection.
Thanks @TDKorn for the PR!
Thanks to contributor @DonPasquale
Added support for Claris Cloud logins (thanks @marklivolsi)
Added support for automatically trying to get a new token when FMS returns an invalid token error (952) for a request (set auto_relogin on the Server instance to True if you want to use the feature). Disabled by default to keep backward compatibility.
This version adds functionality to access the dataInfo section of a FMS response. You can access it "as is" via the info property of any Foundset instance (includes portal foundsets). (Also see: https://github.com/davidhamann/python-fmrest/issues/12)
