pre-commit: Upgrade psf/black for stable style 2023 ()
* pre-commit: Upgrade psf/black for stable style 2023

Updating https://github.com/psf/black ... updating 22.12.0 -> 23.1.0 for their `2023 stable style`.
* https://github.com/psf/black/blob/main/CHANGES.md#2310

> This is the first [psf/black] release of 2023, and following our stability policy, it comes with a number of improvements to our stable style…

Also, add https://github.com/tox-dev/pyproject-fmt and https://github.com/abravalheri/validate-pyproject to pre-commit.

I only modified `.pre-commit-config.yaml` and all other files were modified by pre-commit.ci and psf/black.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

"""
This is pure Python implementation of comb sort algorithm.
Comb sort is a relatively simple sorting algorithm originally designed by Wlodzimierz
Dobosiewicz in 1980. It was rediscovered by Stephen Lacey and Richard Box in 1991.
Comb sort improves on bubble sort algorithm.
In bubble sort, distance (or gap) between two compared elements is always one.
Comb sort improvement is that gap can be much more than 1, in order to prevent slowing
down by small values
at the end of a list.
More info on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comb_sort
For doctests run following command:
python -m doctest -v comb_sort.py
or
python3 -m doctest -v comb_sort.py
For manual testing run:
python comb_sort.py
