This includes all of the methods mentioned in this blog post:
https://developer.github.com/changes/2014-03-18-paginating-method-changes/
as well as a handful of others I found. Sadly, this is a breaking
change for many of these methods because it changes the method
signature, but with yesterday's API change these methods are now broken
anyway. :(
Inspired by the Ruby version [1], UploadReleaseAsset now accepts a
simple path to a file.
The Content-Type is now determined internally using the
mime.TypeByExtension() function.
Note this version is also more flexible. Indeed, the previous version
needed an io.Reader, but actually only 3 kinds of io.Reader were bore.
This is because of http.NewRequest needs to determine the Content-Length
of the body, and it can only determine it for bytes.Buffer, bytes.Reader
or strings.Reader [2]. Note there is an issue raised about this [3].
With a path to a file, we can easily determine the file size, and then
manually add it to the request.
