Simplify CMake build using add_subdirectory

Update document version to the next release 1.8

Sergey Lyskov pointed out that the trampoline mechanism used to override
virtual methods from within Python caused unnecessary overheads when
instantiating the original (i.e. non-extended) class.

This commit removes this inefficiency, but some syntax changes were
needed to achieve this. Projects using this features will need to make a
few changes:

In particular, the example below shows the old syntax to instantiate a
class with a trampoline:

class_<TrampolineClass>("MyClass")
    .alias<MyClass>()
    ....

This is what should be used now:

class_<MyClass, std::unique_ptr<MyClass, TrampolineClass>("MyClass")
    ....

Importantly, the trampoline class is now specified as the *third*
argument to the class_ template, and the alias<..>() call is gone. The
second argument with the unique pointer is simply the default holder
type used by pybind11.

pybind11::args should have been derived from tuple

args was derived from list, but cpp_function::dispatcher sends a tuple to it->impl (line #346 and #392 in pybind11.h).  As a result args::size() and args::operator[] don't work at all.  On my mac args::size() returns -1.  Making args a subclass of tuple fixes it.

Increase available information on invocation error.

The function creates a pybind11 module using the specified source files.

Cache C/C++ compilation

Fixed typo in NumPy example which prevented compilation
