Bug report

Bug description:

Autospeccing a class attribute that is a functools.partialmethod (either via mock.patch.object(cls, name, autospec=True) or mock.create_autospec(cls, ...) combined with a direct
mock.patch.object on that one attribute) produces a unittest.mock.NonCallableMagicMock. Calling it then raises TypeError: 'NonCallableMagicMock' object is not callable, even though the real attribute is perfectly callable (instance.method(...) works fine on the un-mocked class).

import functools
from unittest import mock

class Client:
    def _send_request(self, method, url):
        return method, url

    _send_post_request = functools.partialmethod(_send_request, "POST")

with mock.patch.object(Client, "_send_post_request", autospec=True) as m:
    print(type(m))  # <class 'unittest.mock.NonCallableMagicMock'>
    client = Client()
    client._send_post_request("https://example.com")
    # TypeError: 'NonCallableMagicMock' object is not callable
Root cause:

_patch.get_original() (Lib/unittest/mock.py) reads the attribute via target.__dict__[name] first, deliberately bypassing the descriptor protocol (this is needed to support patching descriptors like @property correctly). For a functools.partialmethod attribute, this yields the
raw partialmethod instance rather than the bound-callable object that getattr(instance, name) would produce.

functools.partialmethod objects are not themselves callable (they have no __call__; only __get__, since they are non-data descriptors meant to be resolved through attribute access):

>>> import functools, inspect
>>> p = functools.partialmethod(lambda self, a: None, 1)
>>> callable(p)
False
>>> inspect.signature(p)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
TypeError: functools.partialmethod(<function <lambda> at 0x...>, 1, ) is not a callable object

调研方向

该 issue 指出了 Lib/unittest/mock.py 和 _patch.get_original();首先运行 partialmethod 复现,并跟踪 autospec 如何处理原始描述符。完成标准是:使用 autospec patch 该属性会生成一个可调用的 mock,且所示的客户端调用不再引发 TypeError,同时为该情况添加回归覆盖。
