I forked hexbytes and compiled it to C. It does the same stuff, now faster

This fork will be kept up-to-date with hexbytes. I will pull updates as they are released and push new faster-hexbytes releases to PyPI.

You can find the compiled C code on faster-hexbytes master branch.

We benchmark faster-hexbytes against the original hexbytes for your convenience. See results.

The original hexbytes readme is below:
