Pin qrcode to latest version 8.1

[pyup-bot]

This PR pins qrcode to the latest release 8.1.

Changelog

8.1

====================

- Added support for Python 3.13.

8.0

========================

- Added support for Python 3.11 and 3.12.

- Drop support for Python <=3.8.

- Change local development setup to use Poetry_.

- Testsuite and code quality checks are done through Github Actions.

- Code quality and formatting utilises ruff_.

- Removed ``typing_extensions`` as a dependency, as it's no longer required with
having Python 3.9+ as a requirement.

- Only allow high error correction rate (`qrcode.ERROR_CORRECT_H`) when generating
QR codes with embedded images to ensure content is readable

.. _Poetry: https://python-poetry.org
.. _ruff: https://astral.sh/ruff

7.4.2

=======================

- Allow ``pypng`` factory to allow for saving to a string (like
``qr.save("some_file.png")``) in addition to file-like objects.

7.4.1

=======================

- Fix bad over-optimization in v7.4 that broke large QR codes. Thanks to
mattiasj-axis!

7.4

=====================

- Restructure the factory drawers, allowing different shapes in SVG image
factories as well.

- Add a ``--factory-drawer`` option to the ``qr`` console script.

- Optimize the output for the ``SVGPathImage`` factory (more than 30% reduction
in file sizes).

- Add a ``pypng`` image factory as a pure Python PNG solution. If ``pillow`` is
*not* installed, then this becomes the default factory.

- The ``pymaging`` image factory has been removed, but its factory shortcut and
the actual PymagingImage factory class now just link to the PyPNGImage
factory.

7.3.1

======================

- Improvements for embedded image.

7.3

====================

- Skip color mask if QR is black and white

7.2

==================

- Add Styled PIL image factory, allowing different color masks and shapes in QR codes

- Small performance inprovement

- Add check for border size parameter

7.1

=================

- Add --ascii parameter to command line interface allowing to output ascii when stdout is piped

- Add --output parameter to command line interface to specify output file

- Accept RGB tuples in fill_color and back_color

- Add to_string method to SVG images

- Replace inline styles with SVG attributes to avoid CSP issues

- Add Python3.10 to supported versions

7.0

==================

- Drop Python < 3.6 support.

6.1

=====================

- Fix short chunks of data not being optimized to the correct mode.

- Tests fixed for Python 3

6.0

===================

- Fix optimize length being ignored in ``QRCode.add_data``.

- Better calculation of the best mask pattern and related optimizations. Big
thanks to cryptogun!

5.3

=================

* Fix incomplete block table for QR version 15. Thanks Rodrigo Queiro for the
report and Jacob Welsh for the investigation and fix.

* Avoid unnecessary dependency for non MS platforms, thanks to Noah Vesely.

* Make ``BaseImage.get_image()`` actually work.

5.2.2

-----

* Revert some terminal changes from 5.2 that broke Python 3's real life tty
code generation and introduce a better way from Jacob Welsh.

5.2.1

-----

* Small fix to terminal output in Python 3 (and fix tests)

5.2

=================

* Add ``--error-correction`` option to qr script.

* Fix script piping to stdout in Python 3 and reading non-UTF-8 characters in
Python 3.

* Fix script piping in Windows.

* Add some useful behind-the-curtain methods for tinkerers.

* Fix terminal output when using Python 2.6

* Fix terminal output to display correctly on MS command line.

5.1

=================

* Make ``qr`` script work in Windows. Thanks Ionel Cristian Mărieș

* Fixed print_ascii function in Python 3.

* Out-of-bounds code version numbers are handled more consistently with a
ValueError.

* Much better test coverage (now only officially supporting Python 2.6+)

5.0.1

-----

* Update version numbers correctly.

5.0

=================

* Speed optimizations.

* Change the output when using the ``qr`` script to use ASCII rather than
just colors, better using the terminal real estate.

* Fix a bug in passing bytecode data directly when in Python 3.

* Substation speed optimizations to best-fit algorithm (thanks Jacob Welsh!).

* Introduce a ``print_ascii`` method and use it as the default for the ``qr``
script rather than ``print_tty``.

4.0.4

-----

* Bad version number for previous hotfix release.

4.0.3

-----

* Fix bad QR code generation due to the regex comma fix in version 4.0.2.

4.0.2

-----

* Fix incorrect regex causing a comma to be considered part of the alphanumeric
set.

* Switch to using setuptools for setup.py.

4.0.1

-----

* Fix the pymaging backend not able to save the image to a buffer. Thanks ilj!

4.0

================

* Made qrcode work on Python 2.4 - Thanks tcely.
Note: officially, qrcode only supports 2.5+.

* Support pure-python PNG generation (via pymaging) for Python 2.6+ -- thanks
Adam Wisniewski!

* SVG image generation now supports alternate sizing (the default box size of
10 == 1mm per rectangle).

* SVG path image generation allows cleaner SVG output by combining all QR rects
into a single path. Thank you, Viktor Stískala.

* Added some extra simple SVG factories that fill the background white.

3.1.1

-----

* Update change log to contain version 3.1 changes. :P

* Give the ``qr`` script an ``--optimize`` argument to control the chunk
optimization setting.

3.1

=================

* Important fixes for incorrect matches of the alphanumeric encoding mode.
Previously, the pattern would match if a single line was alphanumeric only
(even if others wern't). Also, the two characters ``{`` and ``}`` had snuck
in as valid characters. Thanks to Eran Tromer for the report and fix.

* Optimized chunking -- if the parts of the data stream can be encoded more
efficiently, the data will be split into chunks of the most efficient modes.

3.0

=================

* Python 3 support.

* Add QRCode.get_matrix, an easy way to get the matrix array of a QR code
including the border. Thanks Hugh Rawlinson.

* Add in a workaround so that Python 2.6 users can use SVG generation (they
must install ``lxml``).

* Some initial tests! And tox support (``pip install tox``) for testing across
Python platforms.

2.7

================

* Fix incorrect termination padding.

2.6

================

* Fix the first four columns incorrectly shifted by one. Thanks to Josep
Gómez-Suay for the report and fix.

* Fix strings within 4 bits of the QR version limit being incorrectly
terminated. Thanks to zhjie231 for the report.

2.5.1

-----

* Fix installation error on Windows.

2.5

=================

* The PilImage wrapper is more transparent - you can use any methods or
attributes available to the underlying PIL Image instance.

* Fixed the first column of the QR Code coming up empty! Thanks to BecoKo.

2.4.2

-----

* Added a ``show`` method to the PIL image wrapper so the ``run_example``
function actually works.

2.4.1

-----

* Fix a packaging issue

2.4

=================

* Use a pluggable backend system for generating images, thanks to Branko Čibej!
Comes with PIL and SVG backends built in.

2.3.1

-----

* Encode unicode to utf-8 bytestrings when adding data to a QRCode.

2.3

=================

* When adding data, auto-select the more efficient encoding methods for numbers
and alphanumeric data (KANJI still not supported).

2.2

=================

* Fixed tty output to work on both white and black backgrounds.

* Added `border` parameter to allow customizing of the number of boxes used to
create the border of the QR code

2.1

=================

* Added a ``qr`` script which can be used to output a qr code to the tty using
background colors, or to a file via a pipe.
