Providing
__version__
attribute is a reasonably common convention amongpackages in the Python ecosystem. Currently the only other reliable
alternative is to use pkg_resources.get_distribution method, however,
importing pkg_resources is notoriously slow [1,2].
Provide the
__version__
attribute to provide an API interface to checkthe version of tasklib at runtime.
Bump the version in order to reflect module API change.
