5.1 (2021-07-30)
Fix a remote code execution issue by preventing access to string.Formatter from restricted code.

Add support for Python 3.9.
Remove deprecated classes and functions in (see #32):

GitHub #6: Do not pass SecurityInfo instance itself to declarePublic/declarePrivate when using the public/private decorator. This fixes Conflicting security declarations warnings on Zope startup.

Remove long-deprecated ‘Shared’ roles support (pre-dates Zope, never used by Zope itself)
Prevent infinite loop when looking up local roles in an acquisition chain with cycles.
