approvaltests-minimal: introducing a new pypi package

adding another pypi package that is released at the same time as the normal release:

• approvaltests - the standard release of approvaltests with all dependencies added by default
• approvaltests-minimal - the same release with none of the extra dependencies added, with the option to opt in to them individually

Allow minimal imports by lazy loading dependencies

The following dependencies are only needed if used

• BeautifulSoup4 in verify_html
• allpairspy in pairwise approvals
• pyperclip in clipboard reporter

Markdown Table

Added markdown tables

Better support for multiple approvals per test

• Better support for multiple approvals per test.
• Added verify_exception
• [Exception utilities] (https://github.com/approvals/ApprovalTests.Python/tree/main/approvaltests/utilities/exceptions)
• Options supports with_namer
• Note: this breaks backwards-combability with 5.1.0 by moving multiline_string_utils into a new namespace (approvals/utilities)

You can now create Verifiable objects, which know how to verify themselves. See:
Creating custom verify methods
Also added remove_indentation_from.

Fixes for Pytest-Approvaltets package

• Better init.py for backwards compatibility
• PythonNativeReporter + PythonNative will resolve from ReporterFactory

Minor Linting

Fixed a few pylint complaints

This is only breaking if you Extend the Namer Classes.

Breaking Changes

Namer/NamerBase

Namer is now a pure interface and the abstract parts have been moved to NamerBase
Fix If you are extending approvaltests.core.Namer you will probably want to extend approvaltests.namer.NamerBase

StactFrameNamer renames

• Directory -> directory
• MethodName -> method_name
• ClassName -> class_name

Verify Best covering Pairs

verify_best_covering_pairs
works the same as
verify_all_combinations
but with a much small set in some cases:
Table of reduction

This release add the allpairspy dependency

Scrubbing Existing Files

Breaking Features

• verify_file() will now scrub it if a scrubber is attached.
  Note: If you scrub an existing file, it will be written as UTF8, instead of it's existing encoding
• Removed Deprecated method verify_file_with_encoding(),
  NOTE: if you call verify_file() instead, your code will work as before
