+- update to 1.6.1:

+  * Add bytes strings to accepted XML sources (issue #238)
+  * XML data bindings and code generators are now considered stable
+  * Add arguments 'max_depth' and 'extra_validator' to validation methods
+  * Enhance decoding with 'value_hook' argument
+  * Remove unnecessary bindings with schema proxy from ElementPathMixin
+    to avoid conflicts when schema is used by an XPath 3 parser
