    Description:

    This update for python-sip provides the following fixes:

    - Fixed the handling of non-pointer object variables so that they are only
    wrapped
    once and the Python object cached.
    - Fixed a regression in the handling of static non-pointer object
    variables.
    - Fixed the /KeepReference/ function annotation when applied to static
    functions.
    - The PyQt4 and PyQt5 specific data structures are now completely separate
    in preparation for the signal changes needed by PyQt5.
    - Renamed the PyQt4Flags and PyQt4NoQMetaObject annotations so that they
    are not PyQt4 specific.
    - Implemented the PyQt5 signal emitters.
    - Add a space between "const" and the variable name for multi-const types
    in generated code.
    - Added the /NoSetter/ variable annotation. In order to not generate code
    that changes values of const variables.
    - Changed the handling of timelines so that the latest version is enabled
    if no known version is explicitly enabled.
    - Added the -B option to sip to allow timeline backstops to be defined.
