pylint-2.6.2

• Add raise-missing-from check for exceptions that should have a cause.

• Support both isort 4 and isort 5. If you have pinned isort 4 in your projet requirements, nothing changes. If you use isort 5, though, note that the known-standard-library option is not interpreted the same in isort 4 and isort 5 (see the migration guide in isort documentation for further details). For compatibility's sake for most pylint users, the known-standard-library option in pylint now maps to extra-standard-library in isort 5. If you really want what known-standard-library now means in isort 5, you must disable the wrong-import-order check in pylint and run isort manually with a proper isort configuration file.

  Close #3722

  "useless-suppression",
