* bpo-39481: Implementation for PEP 585 (#18239)Guido van Rossum2020-04-071-0/+14
This implements things like `list[int]`, which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`. This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`, but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__` that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`. There is also an approximate notion of type variables; e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`. Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.
