Remove the new 'str_is_str' directive again and replace it by a new "language_level=3str" that resembles "language_level=3" but keeps unprefixed string literals and the 'str' builtin type unchanged.
See #2565.

* ``cython.inline()`` supports a direct ``language_level`` keyword argument that
was previously only available via a directive.
* A new directive ``str_is_str=True`` was added that keeps unprefixed string
literals as type 'str' in both Py2 and Py3, and the builtin 'str' type unchanged
even when ``language_level=3`` is enabled. This is meant to help user code to
migrate to Python 3 semantics without making support for Python 2.x difficult.
* A new language level name ``3str`` was added that mostly corresponds to language
level 3, but keeps unprefixed string literals as type 'str' in both Py2 and Py3,
and the builtin 'str' type unchanged. This will become the default in the next
Cython release and is meant to help user code a) transition more easily to this
new default and b) migrate to Python 3 source code semantics without making support
for Python 2.x difficult.
* In CPython 3.6 and later, looking up globals in the module dict is almost
as fast as looking up C globals.

* Cython now emits a warning when no ``language_level`` (2 or 3) is set explicitly,
neither as a ``cythonize()`` option nor as a compiler directive. This is meant
to prepare the transition of the default language level from currently Py2
to Py3, since that is what most new users will expect these days. The next
major release is intended to make that change, so that it will parse all code
that does not request a specific language level as Python 3 code. The language
level 2 will continue to be supported for an indefinite time.
to Py3, since that is what most new users will expect these days. The future
default will, however, not enforce unicode literals, because this has proven a
major obstacle in the support for both Python 2.x and 3.x. The next major
release is intended to make this change, so that it will parse all code that
does not request a specific language level as Python 3 code, but with ``str``
literals. The language level 2 will continue to be supported for an indefinite
time.
* The documentation was restructured, cleaned up and examples are now tested.
The NumPy tutorial was also rewritten to simplify the running example.
