B031 flagged on non-itertools groupby #356

@eachimei

Description

@eachimei

Recent B031 addition: #347

A code that defines a groupby function (not itertools.groupby) will still raise B031 error.

Example:

def groupby(x, y):
    return dict().items()


for _, v in groupby(None, None):
    if v:
        ...
    if v:
        ...

Then:

$ flake8 example.py
example.py:8:8: B031 Using the generator returned from `itertools.groupby()` more than once will do nothing on the second usage. Save the result to a list, if the result is needed multiple times.

flake8: 6.0.0, flake8-bugbear: 23.2.13

Perhaps we can have a better inspection so the error is not raised in such cases?
