[test] fix test_printable_value_bytes with current pygments An empty span was added in https://bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/pygments-main/commits/164574c13533195a555181a2b9c685fea2470403

[session, repository] deprecate repo.connect and move .close reponsibility to session object Repository.new_session just returns a plain session object, and `.connect` (which returns a sessionid) is deprecated. For .close:: session.close() # done ! The session will bear the responsibility to call the "session_close" event but that's better than the previous idiom:: repo.close(session.sessionid) which involves both objects. Related to #1381328. Related to #2919309.

[web/test] fix typo in doc string

[web/httpcache] send weak ETags There's no way we can provide a strong validator in general (especially considering how ETags are generated by the current EtagHTTPCacheManager and EntityHTTPCacheManager). So mark our entity-tags as weak.

[cwctl] drop unnecessary admincnx call from 'shell' The connection is done by the migration helper.

[serverctl] allow schema-diff when db and fs are not in sync
