Fixes #803
The reason this is needed is that inspect uses the (global) sentinel
inspect._empty
to signify absence of (e.g. default) values. But this means that we cannot properly inspect things in the inspect module itself, and libraries do this (e.g. transformers when running BERT).This patch avoiding signature makes the problem of signatures inside inspect being potentially misleading go away.
