Feature release 1.6.0

I found it surprisingly difficult to find a plain explanation of setting up
[hug](http://www.hug.rest/) and apache mod_wsgi. So here is how I did it.

Minimal hug API
--

Writing an API with hug is *really* easy. You can write a "hello world" in
four lines of code:

import hug

@hug.get('/hello')
def hello(name: str) -> str:
return "Hello " + name

Running this on a devserver is also trivial:

hug -f hello.py

mod_wsgi
--

Setting up mod_wsgi is not too difficult either. You need to install the module
and enable it, which on Ubuntu was as easy as:

sudo apt install libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3

Note the 'py3' part, however. I wasted quite a bit of time before realizing the
module uses a specific version of Python. Since hug is Python 3 only (a shame),
a Python 3 build is needed.

The actual host configuration looks something like:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName hello.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/hello/
WSGIDaemonProcess hello threads=1
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/api/hello.py

<Directory /var/www/hello>
WSGIProcessGroup hello
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

(This is on Ubuntu 16.04 with Apache 2.4.18, running it as the Apache user.)

The WSGI script
--

The WSGI entry point expected by mod_wsgi is named 'application' while hug
exposes one under '__hug_wsgi__'. There must be some way to change it from
the above configuration (how?), but I ended up adding this to hello.py:

application = __hug_wsgi__

If the application was installed as a package it would be cleaner to have
some kind of a separate shi like wsgi.py with just a oneliner:

from mypackage import __hug_wsgi__ as application
