Summary:
`long` is 32 bits on windows and so is the default int type for numpy (eg. the one used for `np.arange`).
This diff explicitly specifies 64-bit ints for all occurrences where it matters.

Changelog:
- changed license: BSD+Patents -> MIT
- propagates exceptions raised in sub-indexes of IndexShards and IndexReplicas
- support for searching several inverted lists in parallel (parallel_mode != 0)
- better support for PQ codes where nbit != 8 or 16
- IVFSpectralHash implementation: spectral hash codes inside an IVF
- 6-bit per component scalar quantizer (4 and 8 bit were already supported)
- combinations of inverted lists: HStackInvertedLists and VStackInvertedLists
- configurable number of threads for OnDiskInvertedLists prefetching (including 0=no prefetch)
- more test and demo code compatible with Python 3 (print with parentheses)
- refactored benchmark code: data loading is now in a single file
Features:
- automatic tracking of C++ references in Python
- non-intel platforms supported -- some functions optimized for ARM
- override nprobe for concurrent searches
- support for floating-point quantizers in binary indexes
Bug fixes:
- no more segfaults in python (I know it's the same as the first feature but it's important!)
- fix GpuIndexIVFFlat issues for float32 with 64 / 128 dims
- fix sharding of flat indexes on GPU with index_cpu_to_gpu_multiple
