  Description     : EWAH Bool Array compression for Python

EWAH Bool Array compression is a repackaging and Python-exposed version
of "Enhanced Word-Aligned Hybrid" (EWAH) compression. It's a python
wrapper to a compressed bitarray method, for storing large bitsets.

It is a new build dependency of the "yt" package. I will maintain it
within the Debian Python team. Salsa dir is
