The Testify project (github.com/stretchr/testify/mock) has unfortunately
exposed types AnythingOfTypeArgument and IsTypeArgument which should
have stayed implementation details. They should have been private types
hidden behind an interface.
Those types have function constructors that must be used instead:
mock.AnythingOfTypeArgument("string") -> mock.AnythingOfType("string")
*mock.IsTypeArgument
The references to those concrete types in downstream projects are blocking
the cleanup of the Testify API.
appy/mock unfortunately propagate those mistakes.
The appy project contains the only public reference to
mock.IsTypeArgument on the whole GitHub:
https://github.com/search?q=mock.IsTypeArgument+language%3Ago&type=code
... but it is not used beyond being exposed on the appy/mock package.
So this patch just deletes the two references to AnythingOfTypeArgument
and IsTypeArgument.
