[New-bugs-announce] [issue46669] Add types.Self

[Raymond Hettinger]

New submission from Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettinger at gmail.com>:

Typeshed now has a nice self-describing type variable to annotate context managers:

Self = TypeVar('Self')

def __enter__(self: Self) -> Self:
    return self

It would be nice to have that in the standard library types module as well.
