TypeError: multiple values for argument 'bar'


Python 3.8 introduced positional-only parameters, which allow parameter names to remain available for use in **kwargs. It looks like `inspect.signature.bind` does not recognize this, and thinks the parameter is being passed twice, which causes the above TypeError.

Expected result: <BoundArguments (bar=1, kwargs={'bar': 2})>

Thanks, Brian for the report!

I have a fix ready. When merged, this will be available in the next release.
