Choose operator now accepts tuples and lists of scalars

* ignore Sandbox notebooks & vs code cache

* add notebook for class hierarchy visualization

Update `FunctionGraph` interface and add tests

This commit does the following:
- changes `r` to `var`,
- adds missing docstrings,
- and removes unnecessary dunder method names.

Use isinstance to check types in Type filter methods

This commit replaces a few instances of `type(x) is y` with `isinstance(x, y)`.

This commit also introduces new `test_type` modules with direct tests for the
filter methods.

Update conda CI steps

* Simplify file reading
* Use versioneer as designed
* Avoid adding the `tests` package

- Only use `make_list` if choices is list or tuple and have inconsisten shapes otherwise use `as_tensor_variable`.- Add test function using tuples and lists of scalars and 3d tensors.- Remove support for TypedListVariable

use `builtins.all`, `builtins.any` and `builtins.complex` instead for
clarity.

Avoid Elemwise fusion for scalar Ops without C implementations

Misc. Dot test and interface fixes

Add handling for non-NumPy types in Shape/Shape_i

This change allows `Shape`/`Shape_i` to handle non-standard `Op` values, like
the `None` and `list` values produced by `NoneType` and `MakeList` `Op`s.

The one drawback to this change is that `theano.scan`, i.e. the `scan` function
exposed by `theano/__init__.py`, shadows the `theano.scan` sub-package.

In other words, modules in the `theano.scan` sub-package cannot be accessed via
the top-level `theano` module object (e.g. `import theano; theano.scan.op.Scan`
won't work).

This is a minor inconvenience, and, since internal library code is generally
expected to import objects directly from the modules in which they're defined,
the appearance of this problem will serve as a welcome warning.

This replaces `theano.tensor.basic.dot` with the old `theano.dot`, removes the latter, and renames `theano.tensor.basic.dot` to `theano.tensor.basic.dense_dot`.

Remove theano.compat and other Python 2.x compatibility code
