asyncpg 0.5.3 Released

asyncpg [1] is a new fully-featured open-source Python client library for 
PostgreSQL.  It is built specifically for asyncio and Python 3.5 async / 
await.  asyncpg is the fastest driver among common Python, NodeJS and Go 
implementations.

Feature highlights:

    * very fast (2-3x faster than psycopg2 on average [2]);

    * direct implementation of PostgreSQL protocol and binary type I/O;

    * automatic encoding and decoding of all standard data types, 
      composite types, arrays, range types, and any combination of those;

    * straightforward support for implementation of custom data type codecs;

    * support for prepared statements;

    * no external dependencies, easy installation.

Feedback, suggestions and pull requests are very welcome.
