[New-bugs-announce] [issue33315] Allow queue.Queue to be used in type annotations

[Semyon Proshev]

New submission from Semyon Proshev <s-proshev at ya.ru>:

from queue import Queue

a: Queue[int]

This code throws a TypeError in runtime.
But its pyi stub allows to use it in such a way (https://github.com/python/typeshed/blob/master/stdlib/3/queue.pyi)

I'd suggest to update classes in queue module to allow them to be used in type annotations.
