Pull Request Overview
Fixes a bug in the deprecation helper utility where module names were incorrectly detected when running from portable or installed copies instead of source code.
- Replaces
inspect.getmodule()with direct access to frame globals to get the correct module name - Ensures deprecation warnings display the proper module name regardless of how NVDA is running
