Preserve valid prefix when extending Element - #9594
Preserve earlier valid children when Element.extend encounters an invalid later item, as CPython does.
Materialize the input before mutating the element, preserving existing behavior for self-extension and iterators that raise. Keep the one-lock bulk path for valid inputs.
Verification and scope
Compared with CPython 3.15.0 Modules/_elementtree.c. Reproduced the retained valid prefix and TypeError on the verified CPython 3.15.0 runtime with both list and iterator inputs.
Independent source review covered materialization, valid-prefix ordering, lock and object lifetimes, concurrent type changes, and the successful-input fast path. Normal commit hooks, rustfmt and git diff --check passed. A file-level three-way merge with Validate Element setstate input type #9591 was clean.
No local RustPython build, interpreter tests, workspace/C-API tests or clippy ran because the required coordinated native execution guard was unavailable. Hosted CI must validate the exact commit, including test_xml_etree; no tests were edited.
Existing differences between iterable conversion and CPython's PySequence_Fast, including some error wording and length-hint behavior, remain outside this change.

Bug Fixes
Extending an element now appends valid items encountered before the first invalid item. The operation still raises a TypeError for that invalid item, but earlier valid additions are no longer discarded.
Append valid children before reporting a later invalid item, while retaining the bulk extension path for valid inputs.

PyElement.extend appends valid elements before the first invalid item. It then raises a TypeError for the invalid item.

Summary
Append valid elements before error crates/stdlib/src/elementtree.rs
PyElement.extend appends the valid prefix before validating the remaining items. If an item is invalid, earlier additions remain and a TypeError is raised.
RustPython/RustPython issue 6839: The change aligns Element.extend behavior for invalid later items with the issue’s stated CPython 3.15 compatibility objective.
Merge Risk: Minimal · up to e461c
The change preserves valid children before an invalid item raises TypeError. Adding the suggested regression assertion would improve confidence; no blocking defect is established.

Explanation
The title "Preserve valid prefix when extending Element" matches the main behavior change in the changeset. PyElement.extend now appends the valid prefix of its input before it raises the TypeError for an invalid later item, where it previously appended nothing. The title is short, specific, and free of noise, so a teammate scanning history would understand the primary change.

Add a retained-prefix check for Element.extend in the repository's own snippets.
Element.extend now appends valid children before it raises TypeError for a later invalid item. The CPython test_augmentation_type_errors block that calls e.extend([ET.Element('bar'), 'foo']) checks only the exception. It does not check the parent's children. No repository-owned test calls Element.extend with an invalid item, so a change that validates all items before appending would not be detected.
Add a case to extra_tests/snippets/stdlib_xml.py for a list input and an iterator input. After the TypeError, assert that the parent still contains the valid child that came before the invalid item:

Add repository-owned coverage for Element.extend using both a list and an
iterator containing a valid child followed by an invalid item. After each
TypeError, assert that the parent retains the valid child, so the tests verify
that extend preserves the appended prefix.

Add a test for the retained valid prefix in Element.extend.
Element.extend keeps valid children before a later invalid item, but no test checks this. Existing tests only assert TypeError, so a change that validates all items first would still pass. Add an assertion on the parent's children after the error.

"remove() argument must be xml.etree.ElementTree.Element, not " + type_name

Add a test for Element.extend that passes a valid child followed by an invalid
item, asserts that the call raises TypeError, and verifies the valid child
remains in the parent’s children afterward. This should cover the
retained-prefix behavior represented by valid_prefix.
