* Fix TypedDict inherit-non-class false-positive Python 3.9+
* Fix issue with nested PEP 585 syntax
* Fix issue with nested PEP 604 syntax
* Fix a crash in ``undefined-variable`` caused by chained

* Fix false positive for ``not-async-context-manager`` when

* Fix linter multiprocessing pool shutdown (triggered warnings
when runned in parallels with other pytest plugins)
* Fix a false-positive emission of ``no-self-use`` and
``unused-argument`` for methods of generic structural types
(`Protocol[T]`)
* Fix bug that lead to duplicate messages when using
``--jobs 2`` or more.
* Adds option ``check-protected-access-in-special-methods`` in
the ClassChecker to activate/deactivate
``protected-access`` message emission for single underscore
prefixed attribute in special methods.
* Fix vulnerable regular expressions in ``pyreverse``
* ``inconsistent-return-statements`` message is now emitted if
one of ``try/except`` statement is not returning explicitly
while the other do.
* Fix ``useless-super-delegation`` false positive when default
keyword argument is a dictionnary.
* Fix a crash when a specified config file does not exist
* Add support to ``ignored-argument-names`` in
DocstringParameterChecker and adds ``useless-param-doc`` and
``useless-type-doc`` messages.
* Enforce docparams consistently when docstring is not present
* Fix ``duplicate-code`` false positive when lines only contain
whitespace and non-alphanumeric characters (e.g. parentheses,
bracket, comman, etc.)
* Improve lint message for ``singleton-comparison`` with bools
* Fix spell-checker crash on indented docstring lines that look
like # comments
* Fix AttributeError in checkers/refactoring.py
* Improve sphinx directives spelling filter
* Fix a bug with postponed evaluation when using aliases for
annotations.
* Fix minor documentation issues
* Improve the performance of the line length check.
* Removed incorrect deprecation of ``inspect.getfullargspec``
* Fix ``signature-differs`` false positive for functions with
variadics
* Fix a crash in ``consider-using-enumerate`` when encountering
``range()`` without arguments
* ``len-as-conditions`` is now triggered only for classes that
are inheriting directly from list, dict, or set and not
implementing the ``__bool__`` function, or from generators
like range or list/dict/set comprehension. This should reduce
the false positives for other classes, like pandas's DataFrame
or numpy's Array.
* Fixes duplicate-errors not working with -j2+
* ``generated-members`` now matches the qualified name of members
* Add check for bool function to ``len-as-condition``
* Add ``simplifiable-condition`` check for extraneous constants
in conditionals using and/or.
* Add ``condition-evals-to-constant`` check for conditionals
using and/or that evaluate to a constant.
* Changed setup.py to work with distlib
* New check: ``consider-using-generator``
This check warns when a comprehension is used inside an
``any`` or ``all`` function, since it is unnecessary and
should be replaced by a generator instead. Using a generator
would be less code and way faster.
* Add Github Actions to replace Travis and AppVeyor in the
future
