Fix upload not supporting package metadata 2.3

[gerrod3]

fixes: #682

@dralley This should be safe to backport. And I'll complete full 2.3 support with #689 as a new feature for a future release.

I presume this downloads the file at the provided URL, then uploads it as filename?

[gerrod3]

Correct! I recently modernize the python tests and this is one of my favorite new fixtures.

[dralley]

Nice!

[dralley]

My thought was that it might be best to fully support metadata 2.3 before removing the path that errors out - that way there's no possibility of losing metadata.

I don't plan on releasing the next version without full 2.3 support. But if someone is encountering this error on an older supported version, I don't want them to be without a remedy until the next version comes out.

[dralley]

Strictly speaking the user isn't without remedy at the moment, they repacked the package. Not convenient though, I agree.

If it won't require much effort to add support though though (I think it won't, working on it currently), in my opinion would be better to just do a quick major release including only 2.3 support and little else.

[gerrod3]

We can go that way as well. I'll leave this PR as is for now, and keep a lookout on your PR.

[Derioss]

thank's for your's velocity.

[dralley]

I'm going to go ahead and merge this, then rebase on top, just to simplify things.

Backport to 3.11: 💔 cherry-picking failed — conflicts found

❌ Failed to cleanly apply 781b976 on top of patchback/backports/3.11/781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec/pr-690

Backporting merged PR #690 into main

1. Ensure you have a local repo clone of your fork. Unless you cloned it
   from the upstream, this would be your origin remote.
2. Make sure you have an upstream repo added as a remote too. In these
   instructions you'll refer to it by the name upstream. If you don't
   have it, here's how you can add it:

   $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/pulp/pulp_python.git

3. Ensure you have the latest copy of upstream and prepare a branch
   that will hold the backported code:

   $ git fetch upstream
   $ git checkout -b patchback/backports/3.11/781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec/pr-690 upstream/3.11

4. Now, cherry-pick PR Fix upload not supporting package metadata 2.3 #690 contents into that branch:

   $ git cherry-pick -x 781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec

   If it'll yell at you with something like fatal: Commit 781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec is a merge but no -m option was given., add -m 1 as follows instead:

   $ git cherry-pick -m1 -x 781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec

5. At this point, you'll probably encounter some merge conflicts. You must
   resolve them in to preserve the patch from PR Fix upload not supporting package metadata 2.3 #690 as close to the
   original as possible.
6. Push this branch to your fork on GitHub:

   $ git push origin patchback/backports/3.11/781b9767dae34e8619e3831ff8ad07de1a6222ec/pr-690

7. Create a PR, ensure that the CI is green. If it's not — update it so that
   the tests and any other checks pass. This is it!
   Now relax and wait for the maintainers to process your pull request
   when they have some cycles to do reviews. Don't worry — they'll tell you if
   any improvements are necessary when the time comes!
