Comparing two objects of :class:`.URL` using ``__eq__()`` did not take port
number into consideration, two objects differing only by port number were
considered equal. Port comparison is now added in ``__eq__()`` method of
:class:`.URL`, objects differing by port number are now not equal.
Additionally, ``__ne__()`` was not implemented for :class:`.URL` which
caused unexpected result when ``!=`` was used in Python2, since there are no
implied relationships among the comparison operators in Python2.

(cherry picked from commit 9268c320bf6ea35696951875df518286dd79ad54)

Applied on top of a pure run of black -l 79 in
I7eda77fed3d8e73df84b3651fd6cfcfe858d4dc9,  this set of changes
resolves all remaining flake8 conditions for those codes
we have enabled in setup.cfg.

Included are resolutions for all remaining flake8 issues
including shadowed builtins, long lines, import order, unused
imports, duplicate imports, and docstring issues.

This is a straight reformat run using black as is, with no edits
applied at all.

The black run will format code consistently, however in
some cases that are prevalent in SQLAlchemy code it produces
too-long lines.   The too-long lines will be resolved in the
following commit that will resolve all remaining flake8 issues
including shadowed builtins, long lines, import order, unused
imports, duplicate imports, and docstring issues.

The :class:`.URL` object now allows query keys to be specified multiple
times where their values will be joined into a list.  This is to support
the plugins feature documented at :class:`.CreateEnginePlugin` which
documents that "plugin" can be passed multiple times. Additionally, the
plugin names can be passed to :func:`.create_engine` outside of the URL
using the new :paramref:`.create_engine.plugins` parameter.

Fixes: #4170

The "password" attribute of the :class:`.url.URL` object can now be
any user-defined or user-subclassed string object that responds to the
Python ``str()`` builtin.   The object passed will be maintained as the
datamember :attr:`.url.URL.password_original` and will be consulted
when the :attr:`.url.URL.password` attribute is read to produce the
string value.

- add a connect=True key to connection record to support
  pre-loading of _ConnectionRecord objects
- ensure _ConnectionRecord.close() leaves the record in a good
  state for reopening
- add _ConnectionRecord.record_info for persistent storage
- add "in_use" accessor based on fairy_ref being present or not
- allow for the exclusions system and SuiteRequirements to be
  usable without the full plugin_base setup.
- move some Python-env requirements to the importable
  requirements.py module.
- allow starttime to be queried
- add additional events for engine plugins
- have "dialect" be a first-class parameter to the pool,
  ensure the engine strategy supplies it up front

be stated in the query string for a URL.   Custom plugins can
be written which will be given the chance up front to alter and/or
consume the engine's URL and keyword arguments, and then at engine
create time will be given the engine itself to allow additional
modifications or event registration.  Plugins are written as a
subclass of :class:`.CreateEnginePlugin`; see that class for
details.
fixes #3536

:func:`.engine_from_config` were not being parsed correctly;
these included ``pool_threadlocal`` and the psycopg2 argument
``use_native_unicode``. fixes #3435
- add legacy_schema_aliasing config parsing for mssql
- move use_native_unicode config arg to the psycopg2 dialect

functionality.   Added a new "soft invalidate" feature to the
connection pool at the level of the checked out connection wrapper
as well as the :class:`._ConnectionRecord`.  This works similarly
to a modern pool invalidation in that connections aren't actively
closed, but are recycled only on next checkout; this is essentially
a per-connection version of that feature.  A new event
:class:`.PoolEvents.soft_invalidate` is added to complement it.
fixes #3379

- Added new flag
:attr:`.ExceptionContext.invalidate_pool_on_disconnect`.
Allows an error handler within :meth:`.ConnectionEvents.handle_error`
to maintain a "disconnect" condition, but to handle calling invalidate
on individual connections in a specific manner within the event.

- Added new event :class:`.DialectEvents.do_connect`, which allows
interception / replacement of when the :meth:`.Dialect.connect`
hook is called to create a DBAPI connection.  Also added
dialect plugin hooks :meth:`.Dialect.get_dialect_cls` and
:meth:`.Dialect.engine_created` which allow external plugins to
add events to existing dialects using entry points.
