Can't compile with Python 3

[plison]

I get an error when trying to compile the library (using Python 3.5):

cythoning zen/algorithms/shortest_path.pyx to zen/algorithms/shortest_path.c

Error compiling Cython file:
------------------------------------------------------------
...
		return distance, predecessor
	else:
		return distance

def dijkstra_cmp(x,y):
	return cmp(x.cost,y.cost)
          ^
------------------------------------------------------------

zen/algorithms/shortest_path.pyx:680:11: undeclared name not builtin: cmp

The error is most likely caused by the removal of the cmp builtin function from Python 3, see https://docs.python.org/3.0/whatsnew/3.0.html#ordering-comparisons

I'm surprised that's the only error :) haven't made zen 3.X compatible yet. That's well overdue, though. I'll prioritize this and aim to have it done by end of next week.

I worked a bit on it on a porting https://github.com/caterpy/zenlib

caveats:

• the porting is the dumbest one I could do and will probably (definitely) break compatibility with py2k
• migth get around with less conversions from/to byte/unicode types, for now it works ok
• cython code is still on language_level 2

also, occasionally python3 heapq seems faster than fiboheapc:)

I believe this issue could be merged with #19
