This PR improves our handling of HTTP message body encodings:
- The unaltered message body is now accessible as `.raw_content`
- The "content-encoding"-decoded content (i.e. gzip removed) content
is not `.content`, as this is what we want in 99% of the cases.
- `.text` now provides the "content-encoding"-decoded and then
"content-type charset"-decoded message body.
- The decoded values for `.content` and `.text` are cached,
so that repeated access and `x.text = x.text` is cheap.
- The `decoded()` decorator is now deprecated, as we can now just use
`.content`. Similarly `HTTPMessage.get_decoded_content()` is
deprecated.
- Adds default implementations for _kconv and _reduce_values to MultiDict.
Without these, operations fail in really, really non-obvious ways.
- Replace the remaining few instances of ODict
Fixes#1159
This makes MultiDictView work with a simple getter/setter pair, rather than
using attributes with implicit leading underscores. Also move MultiDictView
into multidict.py and adds some simple unit tests.
This commit introduces MultiDict, a multi-dictionary similar to
ODict, but with improved semantics (as in the Headers class).
MultiDict fixes a few issues that were present in the Request/Response
API. In particular, `request.cookies["foo"] = "bar"` has previously been a
no-op, as the cookies property returned a mutable _copy_ of the cookies.
