Subject: [PATCH 1/2] test: fix pyright strict-mode errors in test_observable
 (batch 2)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fix pyright strict-mode type errors in 30 files under tests/test_observable/,
continuing the incremental cleanup of the pyright exclusion list.

Error patterns fixed:
- _raise("string") → _raise(Exception("string"))
- def action(): → def action(_): for on_next callbacks (OnNext[T] requires a param)
- Notification union-attr access annotated with # type: ignore[union-attr]
- subscribe(scheduler="not_set") → subscribe(scheduler=None) for proper typing
- mapper/generate iterate lambdas annotated with # type: ignore[arg-type]
- do_action callback removing spurious return value
- factory(ex: Exception) → factory(ex: Exception | None) for on_error_resume_next
- return lambda: None → return None in subscribe functions
- Hoisted variables to avoid unbound-var errors inside assertRaises blocks
- Various other minor fixes (arg-type, call-arg, misc type: ignore)

260 tests pass. Part of ongoing effort to clean up pyright exclusions.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] refactor(tests): replace type:ignore comments with proper
 type annotations
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Builds on PR #782 to replace the `# type: ignore` suppressions with
real type annotations and structural fixes:

- Use `isinstance(value, OnError|OnNext)` to narrow `Recorded.value` instead
  of `# type: ignore[union-attr]` (test_average, test_elementat, test_reduce,
  test_toiterable).
- Properly annotate test-local `subscribe` functions with
  `ObserverBase[T] / SchedulerBase | None / DisposableBase` and return
  `Disposable()` so `reactivex.create(...)` accepts them without
  `# type: ignore[misc]/[arg-type]` (test_concat, test_observeon, test_map,
  test_skipuntil, test_while_do).
- Type `xs` as `list[ColdObservable[int] | None]` in test_defer instead of
  bare `[None]`, and add `assert xs[0] is not None` narrowing.
- Annotate `_raise` as `NoReturn` in test_map, test_retry, test_generate so
  the surrounding code type-checks without trailing dummy returns.
- Use a typed module-level seed in test_generate to widen `Literal[0]` to
  `int` so `lambda x: x + 1` matches `Mapper[int, int]`.
- `cast(Observable[int], s)` in test_tofuture instead of `# type: ignore`.

Also widens two clearly-incorrect public type signatures (the implementation
already supports the wider input):

- `delay()` and `delay_()` now accept `AbsoluteOrRelativeTime` instead of
  only `RelativeTime`. The implementation already branches on
  `isinstance(duetime, datetime)`, so this just makes the signature match
  reality and removes 5 `# type: ignore[arg-type]` in test_delay.
- `from_callback()` now returns `Callable[..., Observable[Any]]` instead of
  `Callable[[], Observable[Any]]`. The inner `function(*args)` already
  accepts arbitrary args, so this matches reality and removes 2
  `# type: ignore[call-arg]` in test_fromcallback.

Only `test_of.py:51` keeps a `# type: ignore[call-arg]` — it's in a
test that never runs (typo `teest_` in the name) and intentionally calls
`reactivex.of()` with a kwarg that doesn't exist; fixing it is out of
scope.

Pyright strict: 0 errors. All 1494 tests pass.
