    Update to 3.4.0:

    3.4.0 (2014-09-10)
    ==================

    Features added
    --------------

    * ``xmlfile(buffered=False)`` disables output buffering and flushes the
      content after each API operation (starting/ending element blocks or writes).
      A new method ``xf.flush()`` can alternatively be used to explicitly flush
      the output.

    * ``lxml.html.document_fromstring`` has a new option ``ensure_head_body=True``
      which will add an empty head and/or body element to the result document if
      missing.

    * ``lxml.html.iterlinks`` now returns links inside meta refresh tags.

    * New ``XMLParser`` option ``collect_ids=False`` to disable ID hash table
      creation.  This can substantially speed up parsing of documents with many
      different IDs that are not used.

    * The parser uses per-document hash tables for XML IDs.  This reduces the
      load of the global parser dict and speeds up parsing for documents with
      many different IDs.

    * ``ElementTree.getelementpath(element)`` returns a structural ElementPath
      expression for the given element, which can be used for lookups later.

    * ``xmlfile()`` accepts a new argument ``close=True`` to close file(-like)
      objects after writing to them.  Before, ``xmlfile()`` only closed the file
      if it had opened it internally.

    * Allow "bytearray" type for ASCII text input.

    Bugs fixed
    ----------

    Other changes
    -------------

    * LP#400588: decoding errors have become hard errors even in recovery mode.
      Previously, they could lead to an internal tree representation in a mixed
      encoding state, which lead to very late errors or even silently incorrect
      behaviour during tree traversal or serialisation.

    * Requires Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2 or later. No longer supports
      Python 2.4, 2.5 and 3.1, use lxml 3.3.x for those.

    * Requires libxml2 2.7.0 or later and libxslt 1.1.23 or later,
      use lxml 3.3.x with older versions.
