This PR brings the Python API in line with C++ (with a few exceptions as noted below). The pre- and post-processing functions are pulled out of the util namespace into their own namespace pre_post. That way, they can be optionally distributed as a separate shared library. The util namespace is still used and contains code that is otherwise generic. Since it's used throughout, having it as a separate library was pointless since it was always linked to anyway.
Implementation
The Python API now adds more client operators (the previous client_operators header is removed) into client.hpp directly. The native and gRPC clients are also added. Some parts of the C++ API aren't added (e.g. some constructors for some classes and methods that return std::future.
I also reorganized the Python library to remove extra modules. The modules now follow C++ namespaces (so there's a module for util and pre_post but otherwise everything else is under the main module.
