Mypy currently is unable to handle assigning attributes on function:
https://github.com/python/mypy/issues/2087.
pytest uses this for the outcome exceptions -- `pytest.fail.Exception`,
`pytest.exit.Exception` etc, and this is the canonical name by which they
are referred.
Initially we started working around this with type: ignores, and later
by switching e.g. `pytest.fail.Exception` with the direct exception
`Failed`. But this causes a lot of churn and is not as nice. And I also
found that some code relies on it, in skipping.py:
def pytest_configure(config):
if config.option.runxfail:
# yay a hack
import pytest
old = pytest.xfail
config._cleanup.append(lambda: setattr(pytest, "xfail", old))
def nop(*args, **kwargs):
pass
nop.Exception = xfail.Exception
setattr(pytest, "xfail", nop)
...
So it seems better to support it. Use a hack to make it work. The rest
of the commit rolls back all of the workarounds we added up to now.
`pytest.raises.Exception` also exists, but it's not used much so I kept
it as-is for now.
Hopefully in the future mypy supports this and this ugliness can be
removed.
ExitCode is used in several internal modules and hooks and so with type
annotations added, needs to be imported a lot.
_pytest.main, being the entry point, generally sits at the top of the
import tree.
So, it's not great to have ExitCode defined in _pytest.main, because it
will cause a lot of import cycles once type annotations are added (in
fact there is already one, which this change removes).
Move it to _pytest.config instead.
_pytest.main still imports ExitCode, so importing from there still
works, although external users should really be importing from `pytest`.
It currently fails with a TypeError, and was not updated since 2013 -
therefore it can be assumed that it is not important to support it.

This reverts commit dfe54cd82f.
The idea in the commit was to simplify the code by removing the check
and instead letting it TypeError which has the same effect.
However this type error is caught by mypy, and rather than ignoring the
error we think it's better and clearer to go back to the previous
explicit check.
Add a very lax mypy configuration, add it to tox -e linting, and
fix/ignore the few errors that come up. The idea is to get it running
before diving in too much.
This enables:
- Progressively adding type annotations and enabling more strict
options, which will improve the codebase (IMO).
- Annotating the public API in-line, and eventually exposing it to
library users who use type checkers (with a py.typed file).
Though, none of this is done yet.
