SyntaxWarnings with Python 3.8

[tlc28]

Hi,

I've recently updated to Python 3.8 and python-memcached now emits 2 syntax warnings:

memcache.py:1303: SyntaxWarning: "is" with a literal. Did you mean "=="?
  if key is '':
memcache.py:1304: SyntaxWarning: "is" with a literal. Did you mean "=="?
  if key_extra_len is 0:

Would be great if you could fix this… and publish a patch-version on pypi!

Best regards

Was this fixed? Can it be closed? https://github.com/linsomniac/python-memcached/blob/5c5cb1bc965c941f93b166d7ab2c055e3d8261e0/memcache.py#L1309-L1310

I agree with @cclauss that this has been resolved, closing.
