Summary
Check that open() results in a file-like object, preventing crashes in callers to
mp_vfs_open
when an object that is "not actually a file" is returned. This includes, for example,execfile
.Closes: #17841
Testing
I added a test derived from the reproducer in #17841.
Trade-offs and Alternatives
