• tp_name field of PyTypeObjects needs to include module name; dot separated; Example: khmer.Read
• rename all Python facing mentions of 'hash' to 'table' (and update Python code)
• remove _common_init_Type and refactor accordingly
• PyTypeObjects should be name khmer_${TYPENAME}_Type;
• all PyTypeObjects should be implemented as new style Python classes
• Type methods should use their type Object in the method signature instead of PyObject. Cast the methods to PyCFunctions in the PyMethodDef.
• Type deallocators should use their type Object in the method signature instead of PyObject. Cast the method in tp_dealloc to (destructor)
