Given the impact of the following two changes, this is a major release:
swapped out the node-based LookML parser with Josh Temple's new Python lkml parser (https://pypi.org/project/lkml/). This simplifies install, dependency management, and underlying parsed JSON format.
added layer of abstraction via LookML and LookMLField classes so that rules and other code can query LookML attributes via methods instead of inspecting raw JSON.
Other changes:
lkmltools.RuleFactory is now a singleton so it is easier for users to register their own rules.
Can now parameterize any rule in the configuration by adding additional keys to the dictionary for that rule.
For instance, if the config defines {"name": "MyAwesomeRule", "run": true, "debug": true, "strict_mode":true, length: 6} then this whole dictionary is passed into the constructor during rule instantiation.
