Fix some errors detected by mypy

[dimbleby]

picking off quite a few typechecking errors.

Some remarks

• I haven't committed the re-generated code

  • when I regenerate, several hooks go missing (the same happens on main)
  • perhaps you have a set of manual changes that you apply to the autogenerated code?

• I believe that enable_recursive_aliases will soon be mypy default, so that seems a very reasonable thing to include

• I haven't added py.typed, or tried to update your github workflow to run mypy

  • you'll want to do both of those I think: so that others can take advantage of these types, and so that they don't regress

remaining errors are as follows:

where

• the first group look to me as though they might represent a real bug, probably you should look into that
• the second group are I think a mypy error, possibly Union not being recognized as types.UnionType python/mypy#13810 or similar
  • probably these just want ignoring?
• the final one would be easy to fix - use lsp_types.LSPAny - but doing that for some reason causes test breakage
  • seems like there's something screwy here, again you might want to look into it
  • though perhaps the unusual treatment of "LspAny" in this piece of code suggests you already know that something's up

It is a cattrs thing, for some reason depending on the use of TypeAlias the behavior changes. But I can't use TypeAlias as unless we move to python that shipped TypeAlias inbox. That seems to again cause issues with cattrs hooks.

@dimbleby Can I merge this?

[dimbleby]

Sure, go for it.

re the remaining errors in the ALL_TYPES_MAP, I'm no longer at all sure what the right fix is. regardless of whether the typechecker can be tricked into believing that strings and unions are types... they're not!
