The 8 `examples/debugging/` scripts driven by the pexpect'd
`test_debugger.py` REPL-flows (#477 removal),
- blocking one-shots (`subactor_error`, `subactor_breakpoint`,
`shielded_pause`): straight `to_actor.run(fn, an=an)` — the
boxed error/`BdbQuit` raises in the root's task.
- `multi_subactors`: introduces the "collect all errors" pattern
— each one-shot catches + stashes its `RemoteActorError` (vs
raising) so no child's crash cancels its siblings before
they've had their own REPL sessions, then a
`BaseExceptionGroup` of the lot raises at the end; preserves
the legacy teardown-reap REPL flow exactly (28/28 debugger
suite unchanged).
- `multi_nested_subactors_error_up_through_nurseries` +
`root_cancelled_but_child_is_in_tty_lock`: recursive
`spawn_until` levels each block on their one-shot child; the
parallel spawner-trees run as bg task-nursery one-shots where
the first tree's error cancels the other.
- `multi_subactor_root_errors` +
`root_timeout_while_child_crashed`: `start_actor()` + bg
`Portal.run()` tasks so the root's own error/timeout races the
already-crashed children, same as before.
- `sync_bp`: TODO-comment x-ref update only.
`test_debugger.py`: the nested-nurseries test's final-output
patterns update to the new relay shape — the LAST-released leaf
REPL's error chain wins each level's relay-vs-cancel race and
relays as a `collapse_eg()`-annotated collapsed chain, while the
sibling tree is cancelled + absorbed. (The legacy teardown-reap
grouped BOTH the `name_error` and bp-quit chains — explaining
the previously-mysterious "extra" `src_uid`/`relay_uid` patterns
noted in the old TODO.)
Gate: `tests/devx/test_debugger.py` = 28 passed, 6 skipped —
identical to the pre-migration baseline.

Address the actionable findings from the `/code-review` pass
(#1-6); the d2-ext + docstring nits (#7-10) are left for a
follow-up.
Deats,
- `uds_transport_actor_tree.py`: `portal.chan.raddr.sockpath` is
the *shared listener* socket (named for the root registrar), NOT
the child's path — relabel it + lead with the per-child peer pid,
and stop claiming it's the child addr in the docstring,
- `docs.yml`: scope the `pages` `concurrency` group to the `deploy`
job w/ `cancel-in-progress: false` so a PR build can't cancel an
in-flight production deploy,
- `architecture.rst`: `'subint'` is not a selectable `start_method`
on this branch (`SpawnMethodKey` lacks it) — reframe as
in-development/roadmap,
- `context.rst`: `StreamOverrun` isn't re-exported from `tractor`;
point at `tractor._exceptions`,
- `debugging/`: sweep the 3 literalinclude'd examples off the
deprecated `.result()` -> `.wait_for_result()`,
- `quickstart.rst`: proc-title is `name@pid` (per `Aid.reprol`),
not `@uuid`.
NOTE, the `debugging/` examples are pexpect-tested; re-run
`tests/devx/test_debugger.py` for them.

It's been a long time prepped and now finally implemented!
Offer a `shield: bool` argument from our async `._debug` APIs:
- `await tractor.pause(shield=True)`,
- `await tractor.post_mortem(shield=True)`
^-These-^ can now be used inside cancelled `trio.CancelScope`s,
something very handy when introspecting complex (distributed) system
tear/shut-downs particularly under remote error or (inter-peer)
cancellation conditions B)
Thanks to previous prepping in a prior attempt and various patches from
the rigorous rework of `.devx._debug` internals around typed msg specs,
there ain't much that was needed!
Impl deats
- obvi passthrough `shield` from the public API endpoints (was already
done from a prior attempt).
- put ad-hoc internal `with trio.CancelScope(shield=shield):` around all
checkpoints inside `._pause()` for both the root-process and subactor
case branches.
Add a fairly rigorous example, `examples/debugging/shielded_pause.py`
with a wrapping `pexpect` test, `test_debugger.test_shield_pause()` and
ensure it covers as many cases as i can think of offhand:
- multiple `.pause()` entries in a loop despite parent scope
cancellation in a subactor RPC task which itself spawns a sub-task.
- a `trio.Nursery.parent_task` which raises, is handled and
tries to enter and unshielded `.post_mortem()`, which of course
internally raises `Cancelled` in a `._pause()` checkpoint, so we catch
the `Cancelled` again and then debug the debugger's internal
cancellation with specific checks for the particular raising
checkpoint-LOC.
- do ^- the latter -^ for both subactor and root cases to ensure we
can debug `._pause()` itself when it tries to REPL engage from
a cancelled task scope Bo
