pyczmq does not expose zlist, zhash, zsys, ztree, zthread, or zuuid as they
are redundant to existing Python functionality.

zstr however is how you turn messages into strings.  It is not an
implementation of a string type.  It is critical to the functionality of
pyczmq (assuming you want string output from the library).
