Bump altcover from 8.2.820 to 8.2.831

[dependabot]

Bumps altcover from 8.2.820 to 8.2.831.

Release notes

Sourced from altcover's releases.

Habu series release 9

8.2.831

• [BUGFIX] Make the static-linked parts of the recorder assembly internal, so only the AltCover instrumentation API is exposed -- removes type duplications from the environment that may confuse run-time assembly creation e.g. by Marten (issue #133)
• For CallContext, add async-aware tracking for all methods returning Task or Task<T> not just ones with the C# async shape. This includes functions returning the new F#6 task{} computation expression.
  • Note there is a support gap : running this under .net Framework less than v4.6 (i.e. a test machine with a pre-2015-JUL-20 environment) will not work, even though Task is a .net 4.0 feature, as the tracking support relies on .net 4.6 async features.
• Emit (a warning)[https://stevegilham.github.io/altcover/AltCover.Engine/AltCover/AltCover.LoggingOptions/Warn-apidoc] if any of the files input to the instrumentations have previously been instrumented, leaving those files untouched (apart from any Recorder assembly, which will still be overwritten). For dotnet test this is an MSBuild warning, for powershell, it is delivered via Cmdlet.WriteWarning.
  • This behaviour is subject to change in future releases
• Rework of the build process to keep artifacts out of the tracked directories

Habu series release 8

8.2.828

• Absorb .net 6 release into build tooling (awaiting a non-preview updated release of (fake.build)[https://fake.build/] to be able to upgrade to FSharp.Core 6.x -- still have to target the v5.x library even if the build uses the F#6 compiler)
• Where the debug symbols used in the instrumentation contain embedded source (e.g. from source generators), represent that within the generated report --
  • for OpenCover format, as an altcover.embed attribute added to the File element
  • for NCover classic, altcover.file elements are added after the method records in a module, with attributes document and embed
  • and for the extended coverlet JSON format, as a type «AltCover.embed» with an empty method with name being the embedded text.
• [VISUALIZER] Support the extended formats for display, using the embedded source in preference to the file system whenever present
• Support these extensions in conversions between formats -- conversion to Lcov and Cobertura currently lose this information
• Other fixes/enhancements to these conversions, esp. in the cases of partial classes and inlined code
• Compute summary data correctly in the output from Json to OpenCover
• Carry both recorder versions (net20 and net46) as resources to simplify self-test behaviour
• Move baseline Cake support to v1.1.0 and Fake to v5.20.4

Habu series release 7

8.2.825

• Next release will be post .net 6 release to accommodate its impact, barring show-stoppers
• [BUGFIX] As noted in [Q&A discussion (#107)](Q&A General discussion SteveGilham/altcover#107), satellite assemblies, and in [issue #47](SteveGilham/altcover#47) platform specific library subfolders, were not being copied appropriately relative to the instrumented location; this is now resolved.
• [BUGFIX] Prevent --localSource possibly excluding locally built assemblies using source generators.
• [VISUALIZER] Fixes and updates
  • On the global tool, don't put expander icons (˃) on leaf nodes, i.e. most methods, all source -- such icons are an automatic feature in GTK, but are manual in Avalonia.
  • Don't throw while trying to determine if a file that doesn't exist is outdated

Habu series release 6c

8.2.824

• [VISUALIZER] Fixes and updates
  • [REGRESSION] Fix where multiple source file support broke JSON coverage support
  • Not all coverage reports are XML -- fix root node icon
  • Add more icons indicating non-default states (files missing, changed, via sourcelink &c)
  • Replace most of the annoying pop-ups with tool-tips

Habu series release 6b

8.2.823

• [VISUALIZER] Fixes and updates
  • [REGRESSION] Fix where multiple source file support broke methods with no source file
  • [BUGFIX] Fix where some types were erroneously shown as functions (ƒₓ)
  • Allow for TAB characters (which occupy 1 column only in the .PDB), and display → rather than ◻ in the global tool (TAB expands to 8 spaces in the GTK# build)
  • Update icons to VS2019 from VS2017 (except where taken from GTK in the GTK# build), which means slightly more colours in the tree view, and a small change to the branch indicator.

[DEPRECATED] Habu series release 6a

8.2.822
