Resolving MRO entries
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If a base that appears in class definition is not an instance of :class:`type`,
then an ``__mro_entries__`` method is searched on it. If found, it is called
with the original bases tuple. This method must return a tuple of classes that
will be used instead of this base. The tuple may be empty, in such case
the original base is ignored.
.. method:: object.__mro_entries__(self, bases)
If a base that appears in a class definition is not an instance of
:class:`type`, then an ``__mro_entries__`` method is searched on the base.
If an ``__mro_entries__`` method is found, the base is substituted with the
result of a call to ``__mro_entries__`` when creating the class.
The method is called with the original bases tuple, and must return a tuple
of classes that will be used instead of the base. The returned tuple may be
empty: in these cases, the original base is ignored.
