Both are no longer needed: debian testing has Python 2.7.13 final now,
and wheels of numpy and scipy are available.
On a debian jessie machine, running 'python --version --noconftest' caused
pytest to try and run the test suite with the not-yet-compiled extension
module, thus failing the test. This commit chages the pytest detection
so that it only attempts to run an import statement.
This way a non-CACHE variable can also be used. For example:
```
set(PYBIND11_PYTHON_VERSION <value>)
add_subdirectory(...)
```
* [Doc] Fix several errors of examples from the doc

* Add missing operator def.

* Added missing `()`

* Add missing `namespace`.
* Some clarifications to section on virtual fns

Primarily, I made it clear that PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_PURE_NAME is not "useful" but required in renaming situations. Also clarified that one should not bind to the trampoline helper class which I found tempting since it seems more explicit.

* Remove :emphasize-lines: from cpp block, seems to suppress formatting

* docs: emphasize default policy, clarify keep_alive

Emphasize the default return value policy since this statement is hidden in a wall of text. 

Add a hint that call policies are probably required for container objects.
* Make 'any' the default markup role for Sphinx docs

* Automate generation of reference docs with doxygen and breathe

* Improve reference docs coverage
fixed VS build, when _DEBUG is just defined without any value assigned (e.g. VS15)
* Clarify PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE documentation

The current documentation and example reads as though
PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE is a declarative macro along the same lines as
PYBIND11_DECLARE_HOLDER_TYPE, but it isn't.  The changes the
documentation and docs example to make it clear that you need to "call"
the macro.

* Add satisfies_{all,any,none}_of<T, Preds>

`satisfies_all_of<T, Pred1, Pred2, Pred3>` is a nice legibility-enhanced
shortcut for `is_all<Pred1<T>, Pred2<T>, Pred3<T>>`.

* Give better error message for non-POD dtype attempts

If you try to use a non-POD data type, you get difficult-to-interpret
compilation errors (about ::name() not being a member of an internal
pybind11 struct, among others), for which isn't at all obvious what the
problem is.

This adds a static_assert for such cases.

It also changes the base case from an empty struct to the is_pod_struct
case by no longer using `enable_if<is_pod_struct>` but instead using a
static_assert: thus specializations avoid the base class, POD types
work, and non-POD types (and unimplemented POD types like std::array)
get a more informative static_assert failure.

* Prefix macros with PYBIND11_

numpy.h uses unprefixed macros, which seems undesirable.  This prefixes
them with PYBIND11_ to match all the other macros in numpy.h (and
elsewhere).

* Add long double support

This adds long double and std::complex<long double> support for numpy
arrays.

This allows some simplification of the code used to generate format
descriptors; the new code uses fewer macros, instead putting the code as
different templated options; the template conditions end up simpler with
this because we are now supporting all basic C++ arithmetic types (and
so can use is_arithmetic instead of is_integral + multiple
different specializations).

In addition to testing that it is indeed working in the test script, it
also adds various offset and size calculations there, which
fixes the test failures under x86 compilations.
* Abstract away some holder functionality (resolve #585)

Custom holder types which don't have `.get()` can select the correct
function to call by specializing `holder_traits`.

* Add support for move-only holders (fix #605)
Adds a 32-bit (debian) build to travis-ci.
This commit rewrites the function dispatcher code to support mixing
regular arguments with py::args/py::kwargs arguments.  It also
simplifies the argument loader noticeably as it no longer has to worry
about args/kwargs: all of that is now sorted out in the dispatcher,
which now simply appends a tuple/dict if the function takes
py::args/py::kwargs, then passes all the arguments in a vector.

When the argument loader hit a py::args or py::kwargs, it doesn't do
anything special: it just calls the appropriate type_caster just like it
does for any other argument (thus removing the previous special cases
for args/kwargs).

Switching to passing arguments in a single std::vector instead of a pair
of tuples also makes things simpler, both in the dispatch and the
argument_loader: since this argument list is strictly pybind-internal
(i.e. it never goes to Python) we have no particular reason to use a
Python tuple here.

Some (intentional) restrictions:
- you may not bind a function that has args/kwargs somewhere other than
  the end (this somewhat matches Python, and keeps the dispatch code a
  little cleaner by being able to not worry about where to inject the
  args/kwargs in the argument list).
- If you specify an argument both positionally and via a keyword
  argument, you get a TypeError alerting you to this (as you do in
  Python).
Passing a negative value wasn't valid anyway, and moreover this avoids a
little bit of extra code to avoid signed/unsigned argument warnings.
This keeps it with constexpr_sum and the other metafunctions.

MSVC by default uses the local codepage, which fails when it sees the
utf-8 in test_python_types.cpp.  This adds the /utf-8 flag to the test
suite compilation to force it to interpret source code as utf-8.

Fixes #869
The "extend" method for vectors defined in stl_bind.h used `reserve` to
allocate space for the extra growth. While this can sometimes make a
constant-factor improvement in performance, it can also cause
construction of a vector by repeated extension to take quadratic rather
than linear time, as memory is reallocated in small increments rather
than on an exponential schedule. For example, this Python code would
take time proportional to the square of the trip count:

```python
a = VectorInt([1, 2, 3])
b = VectorInt()
for i in range(100000):
    b.extend(a)
```

This commit removes the `reserve` call. The alternative would be to try
to add some smarter heuristics, but the standard library may well have
its own heuristics (the iterators are random access iterators, so it can
easily determine the number of items being added) and trying to add more
heuristics on top of that seems like a bad idea.
The stl_bind.h wrapper for `Vector.insert` neglected to do a bounds
check.
:exc: isn't valid.
Now that #851 has removed all multiple uses of a caster, it can just use
the default-constructed value with needing a reset. This fixes two
issues:

1. With std::experimental::optional (at least under GCC 5.4), the `= {}`
would construct an instance of the optional type and then move-assign
it, which fails if the value type isn't move-assignable.

2. With older versions of Boost, the `= {}` could fail because it is
ambiguous, allowing construction of either `boost::none` or the value
type.
All targets provided by pybind11:

* pybind11::module - the existing target for creating extension modules
* pybind11::embed - new target for embedding the interpreter
* pybind11::pybind11 - common "base" target (headers only)
At this point, there is only a single test for interpreter basics.

Apart from embedding itself, having a C++ test framework will also
benefit the C++-side features by allowing them to be tested directly.
* Added template constructors to buffer_info that can deduce the item size, format string, and number of dimensions from the pointer type and the shape container

* Implemented actual buffer_info constructor as private delegate constructor taking rvalue reference as a workaround for the evaluation order move problem on GCC 4.8
This commit also adds `doc()` to `object_api` as a shortcut for the
`attr("__doc__")` accessor.

The module macro changes from:
```c++
PYBIND11_PLUGIN(example) {
    pybind11::module m("example", "pybind11 example plugin");
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
    return m.ptr();
}
```

to:

```c++
PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
    m.doc() = "pybind11 example plugin";
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
}
```

Using the old macro results in a deprecation warning. The warning
actually points to the `pybind11_init` function (since attributes
don't bind to macros), but the message should be quite clear:
"PYBIND11_PLUGIN is deprecated, use PYBIND11_MODULE".
The new version of pytest now reports Python warnings by default. This
commit filters out some third-party extension warnings which are not
useful for pybind11 tests.
test_issues is deprecated, and the following commit adds other, related
reference_wrapper tests.
This reimplements the std::reference_wrapper<T> caster to be a shell
around the underlying T caster (rather than assuming T is a generic
type), which lets it work for things like `std::reference_wrapper<int>`
or anything else custom type caster with a lvalue cast operator.

This also makes it properly fail when None is provided, just as an
ordinary lvalue reference argument would similarly fail.

This also adds a static assert to test that T has an appropriate type
caster.  It triggers for casters like `std::pair`, which have
return-by-value cast operators.  (In theory this could be supported by
storing a local temporary for such types, but that's beyond the scope
of this PR).

This also replaces `automatic` or `take_ownership` return value policies
with `automatic_reference` as taking ownership of a reference inside a
reference_wrapper is not valid.
`accessor` currently relies on an implicit default copy constructor, but that is deprecated in C++11 when a copy assignment operator is present and can, in some cases, raise deprecation warnings (see #888).  This commit explicitly specifies the default copy constructor and also adds a default move constructor.
Py_Finalize could potentially invoke code that calls `get_internals()`,
which could create a new internals object if one didn't exist.
`finalize_interpreter()` didn't catch this because it only used the
pre-finalize interpreter pointer status; if this happens, it results in
the internals pointer not being properly destroyed with the interpreter,
which leaks, and also causes a `get_internals()` under a future
interpreter to return an internals object that is wrong in various ways.
Fix spelling
MSVC 2015 Update 3 and 2017 can handle enough expression SFINAE
to make this work now.
libc++ 3.8 (and possibly others--including the derived version on OS X),
doesn't define the macro, but does support std::experimental::optional.
This removes the extra macro check and just assumes the header existing
is enough, which is what we do for <optional> and <variant>.
Passing utf8 encoded strings from python to a C++ function taking a
std::string was broken.  The previous version was trying to call
'PyUnicode_FromObject' on this data, which failed to convert the string
to unicode with the default ascii codec. Also this incurs an unnecessary
conversion to unicode for data this is immediately converted back to
utf8.

Fix by treating python 2 strings the same python 3 bytes objects, and just
copying over the data if possible.
pytest raises an error if it recurses into these directories.
Fixes #896.

From Python docs: "Once an iterator’s `__next__()` method raises
`StopIteration`, it must continue to do so on subsequent calls.
Implementations that do not obey this property are deemed broken."
This commit allows multiple inheritance of pybind11 classes from
Python, e.g.

    class MyType(Base1, Base2):
        def __init__(self):
            Base1.__init__(self)
            Base2.__init__(self)

where Base1 and Base2 are pybind11-exported classes.

This requires collapsing the various builtin base objects
(pybind11_object_56, ...) introduced in 2.1 into a single
pybind11_object of a fixed size; this fixed size object allocates enough
space to contain either a simple object (one base class & small* holder
instance), or a pointer to a new allocation that can contain an
arbitrary number of base classes and holders, with holder size
unrestricted.

* "small" here means having a sizeof() of at most 2 pointers, which is
enough to fit unique_ptr (sizeof is 1 ptr) and shared_ptr (sizeof is 2
ptrs).

To minimize the performance impact, this repurposes
`internals::registered_types_py` to store a vector of pybind-registered
base types.  For direct-use pybind types (e.g. the `PyA` for a C++ `A`)
this is simply storing the same thing as before, but now in a vector;
for Python-side inherited types, the map lets us avoid having to do a
base class traversal as long as we've seen the class before.  The
change to vector is needed for multiple inheritance: Python types
inheriting from multiple registered bases have one entry per base.
