[PATCH v3 00/13] qapi: static typing conversion, pt2

[John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>]

Hi, this series adds static type hints to the QAPI module.
This is part two, and covers introspect.py.

Part 2: https://gitlab.com/jsnow/qemu/-/tree/python-qapi-cleanup-pt2
Everything: https://gitlab.com/jsnow/qemu/-/tree/python-qapi-cleanup-pt6

- Requires Python 3.6+
- Requires mypy 0.770 or newer (for type analysis only)
- Requires pylint 2.6.0 or newer (for lint checking only)

Type hints are added in patches that add *only* type hints and change no
other behavior. Any necessary changes to behavior to accommodate typing
are split out into their own tiny patches.

Every commit should pass with:
 - flake8 qapi/
 - pylint --rcfile=qapi/pylintrc qapi/
 - mypy --config-file=qapi/mypy.ini qapi/

V3:
 - Dropped all the R-Bs again...
 - Re-re-ordered to put type annotations last again.
 - Rebased on top of "pt1.5".
 - Ensured compliance with strict-optional typing.
 - Forgive me if I missed a specific critique;
   I probably just lost it in the shuffle.

V2:
 - Dropped all R-B from previous series; enough has changed.
 - pt2 is now introspect.py, expr.py is pushed to pt3.
 - Reworked again to have less confusing (?) type names
 - Added an assertion to prevent future accidental breakage
