This change updates the PyKMIP object hierarchy's read/write method signatures to support propagation of the KMIP version. The introduction of KMIP 2.0 introduces future KMIP message encodings that break backwards compatibility; to support this, PyKMIP must know what KMIP version is being used when encoding or decoding an object; the KMIP version residing in the client or server alone is now insufficient. Prior versions of KMIP, namely 1.0 - 1.4, have been backwards compatible, obviating the need for the KMIP version at encode/decode time. Going forward, this is no longer true. The PyKMIP client and server have been updated to include the KMIP version when making calls to read/write, as have the associated test cases covering this functionality. |

PyKMIP is a Python implementation of the Key Management Interoperability
Protocol (KMIP), an `OASIS`_ communication standard for the management of
objects stored and maintained by key management systems. KMIP defines how key
management operations and operation data should be encoded and communicated
between client and server applications. Supported operations include the full
`CRUD`_ key management lifecycle, including operations for managing object
metadata and for conducting cryptographic operations. Supported object types
include:
* symmetric/asymmetric encryption keys
* passwords/passphrases
* certificates
* opaque data blobs, and more
For more information on KMIP, check out the `OASIS KMIP Technical Committee`_
and the `OASIS KMIP Documentation`_.
