Changes:
- obspy.core:
* Inventory objects have been adapted to StationXML 1.1 for details on
changes see #2510 and
https://github.com/FDSN/StationXML/blob/master/Changes.md
* Fixed import of custom plugins (see #2423)
* Fixed "==" comparison for Stream and Trace which was very slow in case of
traces with >1e6 samples (see #2377)
* Added almost_equal method for Stream and Trace classes (see #2286).
* Casting FDSN identifiers to strings upon setting in the stats dictionary
(see #1997).
* UTCDateTime objects will now always evaluate equal if their string
representations are equal (see #2049).
* UTCDateTime objects now issue depreciation warnings when setting any
attributes outside of init, or comparing UTCDateTime objects with
different precisions (see #2077).
* UTCDateTime objects can now accept hour, minute, second, and microsecond
values greater than their normal limits by setting the strict keyword
argument to False (see #2232).
* Fixed UTCDateTime(..., julday=366) for non-leap years. This was returning
January 1st of the next year in case of non-leap years being used. Now it
properly raises an out-of-bounds ValueError (see #2369)
* When reading StationXML/SC3ML, make sure to properly read empty string
fields as empty strings instead of "None" (see #2519 and #2527)
* Better ISO8601 detection for UTCDateTime objects and UTCDateTime(...,
iso8601=False) now completely disables ISO8601 handling (see #2447)
* Added replace method to UTCDateTime class (see #2077).
* Added remove method to Inventory class (see #2088).
* Added id property to WaveformStreamID (see #2131).
* Added __str__ and _repr_pretty_ method for Comment class (see #2115)
* Added __eq__ to QuantityError so empty instances equal None (see #2185).
* Reworked the event scoped resource identifiers for the event classes
hopefully fixing all edge-cases (see #2091).
* Added a hook to allow users to customize finding objects for
resource_ids which are not found via the normal means (see #2279).
* Calling Stream.write(...) on an empty stream will now raise an
ObsPyException consistently across all I/O plugins (see #2201)
* Stream.get_gaps() will now properly report gaps within Traces that
have masked arrays (i.e. Traces that have been merged without a fill
value, see #2299 and #2300).
* Added copy method to Inventory class (see #2322).
* The Response.recalculate_overall_sensitivity() method now accepts integers
(see #2338, #2343).
* Added wildcard and url support to read_inventory (see #2326).
* Modified stream.get_gaps() to deal with overlaps correctly (see #1403)
* Added option "label_epoch_dates" to Inventory/Network.plot_response() to
optionally add channel epoch start/end dates to legend labels (see #2309)
* Deprecated the convert_id_to_quakeml_uri, regenerate_uuid, and
get_quakeml_uri methods of the ResourceIdentifier class (see #2303).
* Added get_quakeml_uri_str and get_quakeml_id methods to the
ResourceIdentifier class (see #2303).
* New method to create response objects directly from poles and zeros (see
#1962).
* Added Stream.stack method (see #2440).
* Added a component field to the Stats object which allows to get and set
the last character of the SEED channel (see #2484).
* Fixed a bug in Stream.plot(type='section', reftime=..., ...) that caused
wrong relative start times of traces relative to given reftime (see #2493)
* Fixed a Windows-specific path case issue in a helper function that returns
a list of untracked files in the git repository (see #2296)
* Fix a bug that was causing an exception being raised in `Response.plot()`
because a float was being passed down to numpy.linspace as length of array
(see #2533)
* Geographic select of inventory/network/station (see #2515)
* Select traces in Stream based on an Inventory (see #2531)
- obspy.clients.fdsn:
* Add new `_discover_services` boolean flag to the Client, which allows the
Client to skip the initial services query at instantiation. This can
reduce the load on service providers, but skips checks against unsupported
query parameters.
* Adding more location codes to the default priority list in the mass
downloader (see #2155, #2159).
* The mass downloader now raises a warning if all channels from a station
have been deselected due to the default location priorities setting. This
is a pure usability improvement as it has been confusing users
(see #2159).
* Make sure that streams fetched via FDSN are properly trimmed to user
requested times if data center serves additional data around the start/end
(see #1887, #2298)
* Fix a problem that could spam subprocesses that were not closed in routed
clients (see #2342 and #2344)
* Make it possible to use signed EIDA tokens and also skip token validation
completely (see #2297)
* Adding a mapping for RASPISHAKE
- obspy.clients.filesystem.tsindex:

#2206)

* Results of distaz method are now returned as native floats (see #2499)

networks/stations/locations/channels are served by the seedlink server
(see #2405)
* "get_waveforms()" can now be used with '*' and '?' wildcards in any part
of requested SEED ID, i.e. network, station, location and channel (see
#2405)
- obspy.clients.seishub:
* Properly handle fetching poles and zeros in presence of multiple metadata
files for a given station (see #2411)
- obspy.geodetics:
* New utility function `inside_geobounds()` to check whether an object is
inside a geographic bound (see #2515)
- obspy.imaging:
* obspy-scan can now be used with wildcarded SEED IDs when specifying what
to plot after scanning data (see #2227)
* Fix a problem in Scanner when loading npz on Python3 that was written on
Python2 (see #2413)
* Fix an issue that could make small landmasses not get plotted in basemap
plots (see #2471, #2477)
* Fixed a bug in Stream.plot(type='section', reftime=..., ...) that caused
wrong relative start times of traces relative to given reftime (see #2493)
- obspy.io:

- obspy.io.arclink:
* Accommodate change in SeisComP3 publicID delimiter from '#' to '/' in
ArclinkXML (see #2552)
- obspy.io.dmx:
* Add read support for INGV's DMX format (see #2452)
- obspy.io.gcf:
* Fixes Python 3.8 compatibility of GCF reader. (see #2505)
- obspy.io.mseed:
* Fix a bug resulting in an infinite loop when trying to read a FullSEED
file without any data records (see #2534 and #2535)
* Add ability to write int64 data to mseed if it can safely be downcast
to int32 data, otherwise raises ObsPyMSEEDError. (see #2356)
* The recordanalyzer can now detect calibration blockettes 300, 310,
and 320 (see #2370).
* Can now write zero sampling-rate traces. (see #2488, 2509)
- obspy.io.nordic:
* Add ability to read and write focal mechanisms and moment tensor
information. (see #1924)
* Add explicit warnings regarding unsupported sections of Nordic files.
* Fix mapping of magnitude-types between MS to S and Ms to s.
* Output preferred origin when writing to Nordic format instead of using
the first origin (see #2195)
* Include high-accuracy phase-pick reading and writing - high-accuracy is
now the default phase-writing format, a boolean flag `high_accuracy`
has been added to turn this off. (see #2351 and #2348)
* Allow long-phase names (both reading and writing) - longer than 4 char.
(see #2351)
* Include AIN as takeoff-angle when reading and writing nordic files
(see #2404).

- obspy.io.segy:
* Raise nicer error messages when header packing fails (see #2194, #2196).
* Show nice error message when trying to write a trace with too many samples
in it (see #2358, #1393)

#2339, #2340).
* Correctly handle QuakeML native namespaces (if they are not matching the
