Currently Figure.legend supposedly supports extra_args, forwarding them to the Legend constructor, but because all parameters of the Legend constructor except for the first two have become keyword-only, extra_args actually causes a TypeError to be raised when calling Legend(...) (try e.g.
plt.figlegend([], [], "right")
). So just don't bother with extra_args anymore, check the case of "more than two positional args" in _parse_legend_args, and also fix test_legend_label_three_args, which was actually hiding the above exception via a mock and not really testing a relevant case anymore.PR summary
