Tables using longtable can now contain nested tables inclusive of those rendered by tabulary, up to the suppression of the latter horizontal lines due to an upstream LaTeX bug. A longtable can never itself be nested, and will fall-back to tabular. Formerly longtable would raise (in principle) an error if it contained any sort of nested table, but the detection of being a longtable was faulty if not specified as class option. Relates sphinx-doc#6838.

The recently added to sphinx.writer.latex tests in get_table_colspec()
(of Table class) and depart_table() from LaTeXTranslator were giving
false positives on legit specs such as >{\RaggedRight}\X{1}{2} when
testing for presence of the R, L, C, J, or T specifiers.
Refers: sphinx-doc#13647.

Tables using longtable can now contain nested tables inclusive of those rendered by tabulary, up to the suppression (done automatically) of the latter horizontal lines due to an upstream LaTeX bug (can not use
\hlinein a tabulary in a longtable). A longtable can never itself be nested, and will fall-back to tabular.Formerly longtable would raise (in principle) an error if it contained any sort of nested table, but the detection of being a longtable was faulty if not specified as class option.
