Some libraries use 'tar.bz2' instead of 'tar.gz' as source archive format.
This patch allows to pass a fourth argument to `build_simple` function to specify an alternative extension to the default `tar.gz`.

The `untar` function in common_utils.sh, used by `fetch_unpack`, already supports the following archive formats: tar, gz, bz2, zip and xz.

MRG: Add PyPy support for Mac OSX builds

Add ability to specify pypy binaries to test against.

Functions renamed to match their intent better.

The syntax is similar to how TravisCI does it.

Travis test uses `get_macpython_enviroment` for CPython and
`get_python_enviroment` for PyPy.

Use latest Miniconda distribution on Appveyor

Aliased PYTHON_VERSION to MB_PYTHON_VERSION.

Changed the test command to use get_python_enviroment instead of
get_macpython_enviroment.

Extended TravisCI matrix to cover PyPy.
The tests can now tell the implementation of PyPy apart from the CPython
version they emulate.

This changes how the the Python implementation is selected.  It's now
primarily based on enviroment variables.

Uses the PYPY_VERSION enviroment variable to determine the version of PyPy to
install.  An example has been added to the matrix in the readme.

Dashes were missing from untar on MacOS.

Redirect fill_pyver errors to stderr, instead of returning them as the
result.

Add LZF builder.

Add Snappy 1.1.3 builder.

Snappy is a compression/decompression library.

LibLZF is a small compression library. Homepage:

MRG: make submodule .git directory for versioneer

pip will copy the directory it installs from before running the install
/ wheel build. If the directory is a submodule, then the copy breaks
the connection with the containing project, so git commands to get the
version will fail.

Fix is to re-create the .git directory for submodules.

Version of fix in #12 with thanks to Hassan Kibirige for doing the 
hard work of diagnosis and finding the general solution.
