Add support for Python 3.9

2024-10-01T11:51:05+02:00

Support Python 3.9 by not using the following features:

  - `match`/`case` statements; replace them with `if`-statements
  - annotation-like class unions in `isinstance`; use a tuple instead
  - `TypeAlias` objects; write these as strings
  - the `root_dir` parameter of `glob.glob`; build the file list via
    `fnmatch.fnmatch` ourselves

Accomodate known slow tests in hypothesis deadline

2024-10-01T11:36:02+02:00

With coverage measurement enabled, program execution can slow down by
a factor of roughly 40 if the Python tracer is used, instead of the
C tracer.  In some configurations, only the Python tracer is available.
To avoid timing out on tests that otherwise would be okay with default
settings, manually reset those tests' deadline to 40 times their
original value; currently only one test is affected.

Fix awkward parametrization declaration for SSH agent client tests

2024-10-01T10:15:36+02:00

Instead of introducing a static method, calling it to obtain test
parameters, then removing it again, use a declaration within the
`pytest.mark.parametrize` decorator arguments, even if that is
supposedly more difficult to read (I wouldn't agree).  Among the
readability benefits (primarily because of compactness), the imperative
version via a static method throws errors on Python 3.9, presumably
because the `staticmethod` object itself is being returned, not the
bound method object, and the former isn't callable in Python 3.9.

On a related note, a future import for annotations was missing as well.

Add proper support for Buffer types in the SSH agent client

2024-09-30T14:35:47+02:00

As of Python 3.12, any custom Python class can declare support for the
buffer protocol.  So instead of special-casing `bytes` and `bytearray`,
and ignoring all other types, support arbitrary classes with buffer
protocol support.  Furthermore, explicitly return bytes objects (i.e.,
read-only copies) of all involved byte strings, because the buffer
protocol ensures that copies are relatively cheap.

Add explicit example in hypothesis test, for test coverage

2024-09-30T10:40:45+02:00

The test coverage otherwise gets flaky.
