API changes:
- Cogs must now inherit from `commands.Cog` (see #2151 for discussion and more details)
- All functions which are not decorators in the `redbot.core.checks` module are now deprecated in favour of their counterparts in `redbot.core.utils.mod`. This is to make this module more consistent and end the confusing naming convention.
- `redbot.core.checks.check_overrides` function is now gone, overrideable checks can now be created with the `@commands.permissions_check` decorator
- Command, Group, Cog and Context have some new attributes and methods, but they are for internal use so shouldn't concern cog creators (unless they're making a permissions cog!).
- `__permissions_check_before` and `__permissions_check_after` have been replaced: A cog method named `__permissions_hook` will be evaluated as permissions hooks in the same way `__permissions_check_before` previously was. Permissions hooks can also be added/removed/verified through the new `*_permissions_hook()` methods on the bot object, and they will be verified even when permissions is unloaded.
- New utility method `redbot.core.utils.chat_formatting.humanize_list`
- New dependency [`schema`](https://github.com/keleshev/schema)
User-facing changes:
- When a `@bot_has_permissions` check fails, the bot will respond saying what permissions were actually missing.
- All YAML-related `[p]permissions` subcommands now reside under the `[p]permissions acl` sub-group (tbh I still think the whole cog has too many top-level commands)
- The YAML schema for these commands has been changed
- A rule cannot be set as allow and deny at the same time (previously this would just default to allow)
Documentation:
- New documentation for `redbot.core.commands.requires` and `redbot.core.checks` modules
- Renewed documentation for the permissions cog
- `sphinx.ext.doctest` is now enabled
Note: standard discord.py checks will still behave exactly the same way, in fact they are checked before `Requires` is looked at, so they are not overrideable.

* Handle missing cogs correctly, add some helpful algorithms
For cog loading, only show "cog not found" if the module in question was the one
that failed to import. ImportErrors within cogs will show an error as they should.
- deduplicator, benchmarked to be the fastest
- bounded gather and bounded async as_completed
- tests for all additions
* Requested changes + wrap as_completed instead
So I went source diving and realized as_completed works the way I want it to,
and I don't need to reinvent the wheel for cancelling tasks that remain
if the generator is `break`ed out of. So there's that.
