Maintenance si here

So basically ofunctions evolves slowly, because it's a collection of small things needed in almost all my projects.
I've been doing this since 2018, and in 2021 I made my repos public.
So there aren't big improvements.
I've tried over the years to keep Python compatibility as low as I could. Except of requestor and threading, everything should still run on Python 2.7, and I strive to make all new releases backwards compatible.

Hope these code collections help someone out there.

v2.8.0

logger_utils

• Monkeypatch get_worst_logger_level() into logger object returned by logger_get_logger() in order to easily retrieve worst called log level

misc

• Created a function called replace_in_iterable() that recursively walks a dict structure and replaces data depending on key / value names. Replacement can be the result of a function call.
• Added fn_name() function which returns current or parent function name depending on the requested level
• Fixed BytesConverter class to allow interpreting 0

network

• BREAKING CHANGE: test_http_internet() has been renamed to check_http_internet() to avoid pytest complaints
• get_public_ip() can now properly enforce timeouts, which didn't work on host resolution because of OS
• get_public_ip() is now way faster since it tries to concurrently fetch IP addresses

platform

• Remove get_distro()
• Added get_os_identifier()

process

• Refactor kill_childs() to allow grace period before asking nicely to quit, then grace period before being a merciless process killer

requestor

• Requestor now has ignore_errors getter/setter, which will transform all log levels above info into info

threading

• @threaded decorator now takes optional __no_thread bool which allows to bypass threading will keeping the decorator syntax (the __no_thread argument is given to the original function and is intercepted by the decorator)
• New wait_for_thread_completion() function which accepts threads or lists of threads, and returns results or lists of results
