Version 0.8.0

[kimikage]

I'm ready to release v0.8.0. Is there anything left to do?

Julia v1.4.0-rc1 has been released and the nightly has been switched to v1.5 series, so I think it's time to check with v1.3 on Travis CI. Because FixedPointNumbers is a low-level package, explicit specification of the versions is not bad. However, from the viewpoint of reducing the trouble of updating, I would like to set it to 1 instead of 1.3.

Edit:
This release contains some breaking changes. Perhaps the biggest impact for end users is the change of the conversion to Bool(cf. PR #168). These breaking changes might not be apparent in the tests of downstream packages. So, please check the compatibility carefully.
