Description: Overview
        --------
        
        Provides tools for guerilla (monkey)-patching.
        
        The package provides two methods, ``patch`` and ``wrap``, that are
        used to decorate the patch method.
        
        Patching is only allowed if a signature on the original method is
        provided. Multiple signatures can be provided corresponding to various
        bona fide versions of the method.
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        >>> from monkey import patch, wrap
        
        A patch completely replaces the original method.
        
        >>> @patch(Module.existing_method, *method_signatures)
        ... def some_patch(*args):
        ...     pass
        
        >>> Module.existing_method = some_patch
        
        A wrap gets the original method passed as the first argument.
        
        >>> @wrap(Module.existing_method, *method_signatures)
        ... def some_wrap(func, *args):
        ...     pass
        
        >>> Module.existing_method = some_wrap
