+RELEASE_TYPE: minor

+Warn in :func:`~hypothesis.strategies.from_type` if the inferred strategy
+has no variation (always returning default instances). Also handles numpy
+data types by calling :func:`~hypothesis.extra.numpy.from_dtype` on the
+corresponding dtype, thus ensuring proper variation for these types.
