1.5.8

Fixes:

• Changed CI build configuration, so that auditwheel no longer puts a copy of libasound in the Linux binary wheels - overriding the system libasound - which prevented the _rtmidi extension module shared library from being loaded on systems, where the ALSA plugin library path is not /usr/lib64/alsa-lib, specifically on Debian-based distros. (#190)
• Replace pip with python -m pip everywhere in in the installation documentation and fixed some minor typos .

Changes:

• Removed obsolete Python 2 compatibility code in the _rtmidi module and references to Python 2 unicode type in its docstrings.
