Note

The original pyrocksdb (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyrocksdb/0.4) has not been updated for long time. I update pyrocksdb to support the latest rocksdb. Please open issues in github if you have any problem.

Thanks for @mosquito (https://github.com/mosquito) who coded a github workflow to build static lib automatically. Python version which lower than 3.7 is not supported anymore.
