Backport PR #6029: add pickleutil.PICKLE_PROTOCOL

instead of hardcoding `-1`.

default to DEFAULT_PROTOCOL if defined (Python 3.4), and HIGHEST_PROTOCOL
otherwise.

         The functions must accept at least valid JSON input, and output *bytes*.

         packer = 'msgpack.packb', unpacker='msgpack.unpackb'
     pack/unpack : callables
         You can also set the pack/unpack callables for serialization directly.
     session : bytes
         the ID of this Session object.  The default is to generate a new UUID.
     username : unicode
         username added to message headers.  The default is to ask the OS.
     key : bytes
         The key used to initialize an HMAC signature.  If unset, messages
         will not be signed or checked.
     keyfile : filepath
         The file containing a key.  If this is set, `key` will be initialized

         username : unicode

             where 'HASH' is a hashing function available in Python's hashlib.
             The default is 'hmac-sha256'.
             This is ignored if 'key' is empty.
