Reviewers

Signal has historically contained a providing_args= argument, which
listed the names of the arguments expected to be sent to the signal.
This was optional and never used for anything beyond the ability to
introspect a signal (which probably nobody does), and isn't supported on
modern versions of Django.

This change removes providing_args= from all signals.

Unit tests pass on Django 1.11 and on 3.2 (with other in-progress changes).
