bigfile/py: We cannot use memoryview for py2 even on 2.7.10

Because numpy.ndarray does not accept it as buffer= argument

    https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/5935

and our memcpy crashes.

NOTE if we'll need to use memoryview, we can adapt our memcpy to use
array() directly which works with memoryview, as outlined in the above
numpy issue.
