Originally added in d7339d9a27b8abd65fbcf85f809fb0089046986f;
unfortunately the change message does not describe why. Images
are handled separately, so it should theoretically not be required,
and keeping it in leads to garbled text when people include %
on their cards.

wrap2() was introduced recently to try and resolve an issue where
styling outside of the wrapped section was getting lost. eg,
<b>some [text] etc</b>
When the user created a cloze deletion or added math tags to the [text]
part, the text ended up not being bold - the inner portion is displayed
without styling.
wrap2() used setFormat("inserttext", ...), which did fix that issue
- but it also introduced multiple new issues:
- any HTML inside the selected area, including newlines and images,
was lost
- the unicode entities inserted when creating a cloze deletion in
RTL mode end up inserted as plain text
For now, I'm just going to revert to the old behaviour. If anyone
has a suggestion for an approach that is able to preserve both the
inner formatting and the surrounding formatting, a pull request
or post on the forums would be appreciated!
The type hints allow mypy to check the gui_hook calls, revealing a
bunch of places that are broken as they expect no arguments like the
legacy hooks.
To make mypy happy about PyQt's signal.connect(func), a qconnect()
helper has been added.
