python: add qapi static analysis tests Update the python tests to also check QAPI and the QAPI Sphinx extensions. The docs/sphinx/qapidoc_legacy.py file is not included in these checks, as it is destined for removal soon. mypy is also not called on the QAPI Sphinx extensions, owing to difficulties supporting Sphinx 3.x - 8.x while maintaining static type checking support. mypy is called on all of the QAPI tools themselves, though. flake8, isort and mypy use the tool configuration from the existing python directory (in setup.cfg). pylint continues to use the special configuration located in scripts/qapi/ - that configuration is more permissive. If we wish to unify the two configurations, that's a separate series and a discussion for a later date. The list of pylint ignores is also updated, owing again to the wide window of pylint version support: newer versions require pragmas to occasionally silence the "too many positional arguments" warning, but older versions do not have such a warning category and will instead yelp about an unrecognized option. Silence that warning, too. As a result of this patch, one would be able to run any of the following tests locally from the qemu.git/python directory and have it cover the QAPI tooling as well. All of the following options run the python tests, static analysis tests, and linter checks; but with different combinations of dependencies and interpreters. - "make check-minreqs" Run tests specifically under our oldest supported Python and our oldest supported dependencies. This is the test that runs on GitLab as "check-python-minreqs". This helps ensure we do not regress support on older platforms accidentally. - "make check-tox" Runs the tests under the newest supported dependencies, but under each supported version of Python in turn. At time of writing, this is Python 3.8 to 3.13 inclusive. This test helps catch bleeding-edge problems before they become problems for developer workstations. This is the GitLab test "check-python-tox" and is an optionally run, may-fail test due to the unpredictable nature of new dependencies being released into the ecosystem that may cause regressions. - "make check-dev" Runs the tests under the newest supported dependencies using whatever version of Python the user happens to have installed. This is a quick convenience check that does not map to any particular GitLab test. (Note! check-dev may be busted on Fedora 41 and bleeding edge versions of setuptools. That's unrelated to this patch and I'll address it separately and soon. Thank you for your patience, --mgmt) Finally, finally, finally: this means that QAPI tooling will be linted and type-checked from the GitLab pipelines.
