* Improve development workflow and CI with pre-commit hooks:
- Remove obsolete .travis.yml
- Setup pre-commit with various formatting and mypy hooks and run it
- Add mypy.ini
- pre-commit: mypy: Only filter out sourceslist and distro in aptsources
* Build fixes:
- setup.py: Strip whitespace in version
* Fixes to deb822 support:
- Make sure we don't construct SourceEntry for .sources file
- Figure out file to add before deciding between deb822 and legacy
- Ensure deb822 keys are case-insensitive
- Pass parent for deb-src entries too
* Fixes to the test suite:
- tests: Ensure we parsed the correct main and child sources
- tests: Adjust test suite to pass all arguments to get_distro()
Fixing the test suite regressions that plagued (random) executions.
* Fixes for aptsources.distinfo to improve error handling for mirror files:
- data: Blankon: Use relative mirror file location
- distinfo: Include file name if we can't read mirror file
* Deprecations:
- aptsources: get_distro: Warn if only some arguments are provided. This
caused the test suite failures. It will soon become a ValueError.
