     ols converts to_dense to avoid some issues

ENH: fixed core/frame/apply to accept reduce argument (default True),

     to allow turning off the reduction attempt (to preserver the column character)
     if say self.values would change it

BUG: _getitem__bool only is active for Index/Int64Index (issues with DatetimeIndex/PeriodIndex)

     so default to having it call (slower) __getitem__

      changes (GH4080)

BUG: Series not updating properly with object dtype (GH33217)

BUG: (GH3386) fillna same issue as (GH4080), not updating cacher
ENH: 'replaced' series.replace with generic.replace !

CLN: cleaned up internal block action routines, now always return a list of blocks
CLN: Add abstract base classes for certain objects

Instead of the `is_series`, `is_generic`, etc methods, can use the ABC*
methods to check for certain pandas types. This is useful because it
helps decrease issues with circular imports (since they can be easily
imported from core/common).

The checks take advantage of the `_typ` and `_subtyp` attributes to
handle checks. (e.g. `DataFrame` now has `_typ` of `"dataframe"`, etc.
See the code for specifics.

PERF: register _cacher as an internal name

BUG: fixed abstract base class type checking bug in py2.6

TST: GH4604, reindexing with a method of 'ffill' gives incorrect results

BUG/CLN: (GH4604) Refactor Series.reindex to core/generic.py allow method= in reindexing
  on a Series to work

API/CLN: GH4604 Infer and downcast dtype if appropriate on ffill/bfill
  this is for consistency when doing: df.reindex().ffill() and df.reindex(method='ffill')

CLN: allow backfill/pad/interpolate to operate on integers (by float conversion)
     provide downcasting back to original dtype where needed core.internals.interpolate

ENH: provide core.index.identical method to compare values and attributes similar to .equals

API: changed back to pre-GH3482 where a reindex with no args will by default copy
