typing: add missing signature for mercurial.cext.parsers.parse_index2() Flagged by pytype 2022.11.18 when the cext stubs are made visible to it. There are very likely other signatures that are missing, but this is enough to keep it happy for now.

typing: minor tweaks to allow updating to pytype 2022.11.18

python-compat: adapt to Python 3.11 BC breakage with `random.sample` As per https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.11.html#porting-to-python-3-11: "The population parameter of `random.sample()` must be a sequence, and automatic conversion of sets to lists is no longer supported. Also, if the sample size is larger than the population size, a `ValueError` is raised"

typing: add type hints to mercurial/help.py Was hoping to find more issues like f09bc2ed9100, but it may be that nothing checks the args to that operation. In any event, the work is done and pytype doesn't do a very good job inferring the types. A few of th emore complicated things like the command table are left untyped, because they come from modules that aren't typed yet.

match: make the FLAG_RE pattern a raw string PyCharm was complaining about invalid escape sequences since this was added recently in 3eda36e9b3d6.

configitems: add a default value for "merge-tools.xxx.regappend" When trying to figure out how `hg help -v` took the Set interpolation path in f09bc2ed9100, I turned on devel warnings and noticed this (unrelated) warning: devel-warn: specifying a mismatched default value for a registered config item: 'merge-tools.beyondcompare4.regappend' '' at: c:\Users\Matt\hg\mercurial\filemerge.py:46 (_toolstr) The previous default value for this config was `None`, but that slightly complicates the code at the only site it is used, referenced above.

attr: vendor 22.1.0 The previous version was 5 years old, and pytype 2022.06.30 started complaining about various uses (e.g. seeing `mercurial.thirdparty.attr._make._CountingAttr` instead of `bytearray`). Hopefully this helps. Additionally, this has official python 3.11 support. The `attrs` package is left out, because it is simply a bunch of *.pyi stubs and `from attr.X import *`, and that's not how they've been used up to this point. We'd probably need to customize those anyway to `from mercurial.thirdparty.attr import *`.

tests: update test-util.py for modern attrs package When updating to 22.1.0, this test started failing: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tmp/mercurial-ci/tests/test-util.py", line 53, in <module> _start_default = (util.timedcmstats.start.default, 'factory') AttributeError: type object 'timedcmstats' has no attribute 'start' Poking around in `hg debugshell`, the attribute is indeed missing, but looks to be attached to `__attrs_attrs__` in both the currently vendored and the modern version of attrs. The old attrs packages will print the same for both accesses, so fingers crossed... >>> print((util.timedcmstats.start.default, 'factory')) (Factory(factory=<function timedcmstats.<lambda> at 0x000001EFDF0F21F0>, takes_self=False), 'factory') >>> print((util.timedcmstats.__attrs_attrs__.start.default, 'factory')) (Factory(factory=<function timedcmstats.<lambda> at 0x000001EFDF0F21F0>, takes_self=False), 'factory')

help: fix a py3 error interpolating Set into b'%s' I can't reproduce it, but a coworker hit this with `hg help -v` with 6.2.3: ... File "mercurial\help.pyc", line 865, in helplist TypeError: %b requires a bytes-like object, or an object that implements __bytes__, not 'set' I can confirm that the original expression fails in `hg debugshell`, and the new one works. The second instance was found by searching for "%s", but PyCharm detects a lot of variables as Any type, so I have no idea if there are other lurking problems.

rhg: upgrade the remainder of the dependencies These are painless, so they are all grouped in this changeset.
