Sorry, something went wrong.
test/helper_tools/gen_sample_flows.py writes a flow file with one flow per type and state the mitmweb flow table can display, including the TCP, UDP, DNS and QUIC flows a regular HTTP proxy never sees. This makes it possible to eyeball the whole table without having to capture the traffic first. Passing --upload pushes the flows into a running mitmweb instead of writing a file.

Description
Adds test/helper_tools/gen_sample_flows.py, which writes a flow file with one flow per type and state the mitmweb flow table can display — the content types getResourceType branches on, plus intercepted, killed, errored, replayed and marked rows, plus the TCP, UDP, DNS and QUIC flows a regular HTTP proxy never sees.
That makes it possible to eyeball the whole table (icons, badges, both themes) without capturing the traffic first. --upload pushes the flows straight into a running mitmweb instead of writing a file.
Checklist
Both are n/a: this is a dev-only helper alongside the other scripts in test/helper_tools/, with no user-facing change to release.
