Christophe Bornet a2e53fda73 feat(text-splitters): replace mypy by ty for type checking (#38658)
Switches type checking for `langchain-text-splitters` from `mypy` to
[`ty`](https://docs.astral.sh/ty/), which is much faster. The `ollama`
package already [switched to
`ty`](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/pull/36571).

## What changed

The core of this PR is the config swap (`[tool.mypy]` →
`[tool.ty.rules]`/`[tool.ty.analysis]`, `Makefile`, and the `typing`
dependency group). Because `ty` runs with `all = "error"`, a few modules
also needed source-level adjustments to satisfy the stricter analysis.
These are **behavior-preserving refactors** except for one intentional
fix, called out below so reviewers know where to look.

### Behavioral change (intentional fix)

- `SentenceTransformersTokenTextSplitter` now raises a clear
`ValueError` when the underlying model reports no maximum sequence
length **and** no `tokens_per_chunk` was provided. Previously this
combination reached a `None > None` comparison and surfaced as an opaque
`TypeError`. As a consequence, the public `maximum_tokens_per_chunk`
attribute is now honestly typed as `int | None` — it can remain `None`
when the caller supplies `tokens_per_chunk` explicitly for a model
without a limit.

### Behavior-preserving refactors (no user-visible change)

- `TokenTextSplitter.from_tiktoken_encoder` is now an explicit override
rather than the base method dispatching on `issubclass(cls,
TokenTextSplitter)`. The shared length-function logic moved into a
private helper. Public signatures and return types are unchanged.
- `NLTKTextSplitter` builds its tokenizer once at construction, so
`_tokenizer` is now always a `Callable[[str], list[str]]`. The private
attributes `_language` and `_use_span_tokenize` are no longer stored —
flagging in case any downstream code read those (they are
underscore-private). Tokenization output is unchanged.
- `HTMLSemanticPreservingSplitter` text extraction was rewritten from a
`cast`-based check to `isinstance(element, Tag)` narrowing; output is
equivalent for tags, text nodes, and comments.

View all LangChain integrations packages

This repository is structured as a monorepo, with various packages located in this libs/ directory. Packages to note in this directory include:

core/             # Core primitives and abstractions for langchain
langchain/        # langchain-classic
langchain_v1/     # langchain
partners/         # Certain third-party providers integrations (see below)
standard-tests/   # Standardized tests for integrations
text-splitters/   # Text splitter utilities

(Each package contains its own README.md file with specific details about that package.)

Integrations (partners/)

The partners/ directory contains a small subset of third-party provider integrations that are maintained directly by the LangChain team. These include, but are not limited to:

Most integrations have been moved to their own repositories for improved versioning, dependency management, collaboration, and testing. This includes packages from popular providers such as Google and AWS. Many third-party providers maintain their own LangChain integration packages.
