sip doesn't use the standard Python staticmethod type for defining
static methods, which means that standard means of testing
for a static method (like `isinstance(..., staticmethod)`) fail
with any PyQGIS static methods.
This causes issues with lint tools, which incorrectly flag
calls to QGIS static methods as missing self arguments. It also
breaks detection of static methods in the sphinx PyQGIS docs,
so all static methods are shown as non-static.
Work around this in sipify, by wrapping unambiguously static
methods in staticmethod wrappers.
sip6 converts all enums to python Enums, but ONLY creates
Enums with IntFlags types when the c++ type is an enum class : int.
Accordingly we need to patch back in all the operations which treat
enum values as ints, like |, &, bool, etc.
The long term solution here is to move all our c++ enums to enum
class, but that's not always straightforward and can break API
for plugins if it involves the signature of virtual methods.
