ENH: Replace exponentiation with cumulative product in np.vander

Speeds calculation up by ~3x for 100x100 matrices, and by ~45x for
1000x1000

ENH: Replace exponentiation with cumulative product in np.vander
ENH: intern the constant python strings

Was always intended this way but not done due to a mistake in Python3
fix. Speeds up dictionary lookups a bit as string comparisons can be
skipped on hash collisions.
ENH: avoid searching for __numpy_ufunc__ if its a basic python type

Checking for the attribute is a very large bottlenecks for reductions.
dtype, out, keepdims will often be basic python types so the check can
be skipped.
Also add a couple missing types to helper function _is_basic_python_type
and move it into a header so it can be used in umath.
BUG: Masked arrays and apply_over_axes

Masked arrays version of apply_over_axes did not apply
function correctly to arrays with non-trivial masks.

Fixes #4461.

BUG: Masked arrays and apply_over_axes
ENH: Ensure that repr and str work for MaskedArray non-ndarray bases

For repr, use the name of the base class in output as "masked_<name>"
(with name=array for ndarray to match the previous implementation).
For str, insert masked_print_option in an ndarray view of the object
array that is created for string output, to avoid calling __setitem__
in the base class.  Add tests to ensure this works.

BUG: Explicitly reject nan values for p in binomial(n, p). Fixes #4571.

Adds check with np.isnan(p) and raises ValueError if check is positive.

BLD: remove cython c source from git

Instead generate at build time. The generated sources are still part of
the sdist.
tools/cythonize.py is copied from SciPy with small changes to the
configuration.
