Merge #403: Parity conversion and error handling cleanup

5acf6d2 `Parity` conversion and error handling cleanup (Martin Habovstiak)

Pull request description:

  This removes the deprecated `From` conversion, replaces it with
  `TryFrom`, and adds more convenience conversions. A new error type is
  created for the invalid parity error with conversion to catch-all
  `Error`.

  This is intended for an API-breaking version.
