-- This change is part of the improved numpy support -- Most primitive types are handled in XML, but this was not reflected by the signatures, error messages, doc strings and hinting stubs. In order to enhance the information shown to be more correct, the C++ parser part was rewritten for Python. It is written closely to Python syntax, but keeps the existing information about primitive types intact. AbstractMetaType::NativePointerAsArrayPattern is now used to mark a variable as an array. Heuristics are no longer used. If a pointer variable is not marked as an array, the Python parser generates a return value. If more than one value would be returned, a result-tuple is generated. Because we now have a deterministic categorization of types, the "const" attribute is no more needed and the entries in mapping.py are reduced. A few missing <array/> markers were added. The tool also now handles typing.List[] differently in arguments and return types. While return types stay lists, they are for now changed to typing.Sequence[] in argument lists. A test was included. These messages belong to the previous "deprecated functions" patch: Further, QMatrixMxN.constData was removed from the typesystem and replaced by a surrogate function that calls QMatrixMxN.data, but also generates a warning. The long forgotten generate_pyi.py was now published in the same course.
