94ff9f44f7 Fix updater interface: pass desktop_arch_path in args
This also adds a lot of type hints. I refrained from changing a lot
of 'str' variables to Path variables, but eventually I think they
will need to become Paths

d5213142a8 Fix misuse of disable_socket (#415)
In an earlier PR, I added calls to `disable_socket()` from
`pytest_socket` where I thought they were needed to prevent some tests
from accessing the network, in case they weren't monkeypatched properly.
Today, I discovered that `disable_socket()` disables sockets globally
for all tests, which means that the tests that use remote data cannot
run if they are executed after another test calls `disable_socket()`.

This change calls `disable_socket()` once from `conftest.py`, so that
no tests are allowed to use network data unless they are marked as ok
to use the network, with `@pytest.mark.enable_socket`. See example of
usage in `tests/test_connection.py`.

Changed return code for unexpected exceptions:

This allows us to write tests that can discover whether an unexpected
exception occurred just by checking the return code, rather than reading
stderr. This will allow us to write less friable tests that don't break
every time some insignificant output details change.

This change catches exceptions derived from Exception and
KeyboardInterrupt raised by `installer`, while run by multiple
processes, and propagates them back to earlier stack entries. This will
prevent any OSError and BrokenPipe exceptions that would otherwise be
raised when one process has an exception while the other processes are
still running.

This also handles the MemoryError exception we saw in #416, and offers
some suggestions for solving the issue.
