Improve bound and unbound signal hints #56
Conversation
`pyqtSignal` is a descriptor and does not have `emit`, `connect`, and `disconnect` methods. Rather it is used as a class attribute and when you access `an_instance.the_signal` you get a `pyqtBoundSignal` instead of the original `pyqtSignal`. So the bound signal needs those methods and the unbound signal needs `__get__()`.

Similar change suggested for PySide2. |

@stlehmann, @BryceBeagle, aside from whether this is correct at the moment or not (still need to add tests etc) but would you rather take signal improvements piecemeal or try to work through a 'complete' solution from the get go? Basically, work through this or just go all out and come up with a solution for #68? I would personally default to taking multiple steps since I'm not sure what the whole solution is. |

I think piecemeal is probably better, so changes can keep rolling out. Functionality is never lost by doing this. We could make a meta tracking issue if we feel there are many signal-based features to implement. |

What's the purpose of setting globals arg?

It complained that the name QtCore didn't exist without it. Which is odd. Worked fine in a REPL as it was but not in pytest. But mostly I don't understand why things are done this way vs. regular old tests. I expected at some point to take a pass at revamping the testing but if you can explain the point of this setup with exec now, by all means go for it.

Nope I have no clue why it's done this way haha
