pylint-2.6.0

• Fix various scope-related bugs in undefined-variable checker

  Close #1082, #3434, #3461

• bad-continuation and bad-whitespace have been removed, black or another formatter can help you with this better than Pylint

  Close #246, #289, #638, #747, #1148, #1179, #1943, #2041, #2301, #2304, #2944, #3565

• The no-space-check option has been removed. It's no longer possible to consider empty line like a trailing-whitespace by using clever options

  Close #1368

• missing-kwoa is no longer emitted when dealing with overload functions

  Close #3655

• Add super-with-arguments check for flagging instances of Python 2 style super calls.

• Add an faq detailing which messages to disable to avoid duplicates w/ other popular linters

  Close #3383

• Fix fail-under not accepting floats

• Fix a bug with ignore-docstrings ignoring all lines in a module

• Fix pre-commit config that could lead to undetected duplicate lines of code

• Fix a crash in parallel mode when the module's filepath is not set

  Close #3564

• Add raise-missing-from check for exceptions that should have a cause.

• Support both isort 4 and isort 5. If you have pinned isort 4 in your projet requirements, nothing changes. If you use isort 5, though, note that the known-standard-library option is not interpreted the same in isort 4 and isort 5 (see the migration guide in isort documentation for further details). For compatibility's sake for most pylint users, the known-standard-library option in pylint now maps to extra-standard-library in isort 5. If you really want what known-standard-library now means in isort 5, you must disable the wrong-import-order check in pylint and run isort manually with a proper isort configuration file.
