Can't inherit from a proxied class

[benrg]

In 1.10.0, this fails with a TypeError:

import lazy_object_proxy

@lazy_object_proxy.Proxy
def Base():
    class Base: pass
    return Base

class Derived(Base): pass

The problem is that class takes type(Base) to be Derived's metaclass, and calls it with three arguments, but Proxy.__init__ expects only one.

Adding three metaclass methods to Proxy appears to fix the problem:

class FixedProxy(lazy_object_proxy.Proxy):
    def __mro_entries__(self, bases):
        return (self.__wrapped__,)

    def __subclasscheck__(self, subclass):
        return issubclass(subclass, self.__wrapped__)

    def __instancecheck__(self, instance):
        return isinstance(instance, self.__wrapped__)

I created a PR #82

Hey @ionelmc, I've run into this issue too. Is there a reason why PR #82 cannot be merged? I see some builds failed, specifically the ones for macos, but I can't imagine that has anything to do with this tiny code change?

[ionelmc]

It is incomplete. The C and the Slots implementations need to also have that change. Tests are missing (new functionality should have new tests at least). I'll eventually do it myself if nobody does it.
