Deprecate typing.Hashable/Sized. Use the collections.abc counterparts directly instead.
To be consistent with PEP 585, deprecated aliases will not raise any DeprecationWarning.
Based on suggestions by Guido van Rossum, Spencer Brown, and Alex Waygood.

The goal here is to reduce potential confusion between
`assert_type(val, type)` and `assert isinstance(val, typ)`.
The former is meant to ask a type checker to confirm a fact, the latter
is meant to tell a type checker a fact. The behaviour of the latter more
closely resembles what I'd expect from the prior phrasing of
"assert [something] to the type checker".
There are several changes:
1. We now don't explicitly check for any base / sub types, because new name check covers it
2. I've also checked that `no_type_check` do not modify foreign functions. It was the same as with `type`s
3. I've also covered `except TypeError` in `no_type_check` with a simple test case, it was not covered at all
4. I also felt like adding `lambda` test is a good idea: because `lambda` is a bit of both in class bodies: a function and an assignment

The documentation explaining Python's data model does not adequately explain
the differences between ``__getitem__`` and ``__class_getitem__``, nor does it
explain when each is called. There is an attempt at explaining
``__class_getitem__`` in the documentation for ``GenericAlias`` objects, but
this does not give sufficient clarity into how the method works. Moreover, it
is the wrong place for that information to be found; the explanation of
``__class_getitem__`` should be in the documentation explaining the data model.
This PR has been split off from GH-29335.
``typing.Tuple`` has been deprecated since Python 3.9, so it makes no sense to mention it so prominently in the documentation for the ``typing`` module.
The list of PEPs at the top of the documentation for the ``typing`` module has
become too long to be readable. This PR proposes presenting this
information in a more structured and readable way by adding a new "relevant
PEPs" section to the ``typing`` docs.

* Use "X | Y" instead of "Union" where it makes sense.
* Mention that "X | Y" is equivalent to "Union[X, Y]" in Union section.
* Remove "Optional[X]" as shorthand for "Union[X, None]" as the new
shorthand is now "X | None".
* Mention that "Optional[X]" can be written as "X | None" in section
about "Optional".

Follow up to 7cdf30fff3 and 4173320920. This addresses the point "1. Update links in typing, subscription and union to point to GenericAlias." in the bpo for this PR.
This special marker annotation is intended to help in distinguishing
proper PEP 484-compliant type aliases from regular top-level variable
assignments.
This shows users that they can use the actual types. Using deprecated types is confusing.
This also prefers colections.abc.Sized instead of the alias typing.Sized. I guess the aliases were created to make it convenient to import all collections related types from the same place.
This should be backported to 3.9.

* bpo-39491: Merge PEP 593 (typing.Annotated) support
PEP 593 has been accepted some time ago. I got a green light for merging
this from Till, so I went ahead and combined the code contributed to
typing_extensions[1] and the documentation from the PEP 593 text[2].
My changes were limited to:
* removing code designed for typing_extensions to run on older Python
versions
* removing some irrelevant parts of the PEP text when copying it over as
documentation and otherwise changing few small bits to better serve
the purpose
* changing the get_type_hints signature to match reality (parameter
names)
I wasn't entirely sure how to go about crediting the authors but I used
my best judgment, let me know if something needs changing in this
regard.

PR #4906 changed the typing.Generic class hierarchy, leaving an
outdated comment in the library reference. User-defined Generic ABCs now
must get a abc.ABCMeta metaclass from something other than typing.Generic
inheritance.
This PR replaces the old note mentioning that `typing` is a provisional module with a new one mentioning types are not enforced at runtime. I am not sure if there was any official announcement about making `typing` non-provisional, but _de-facto_ no new features were added during Python 3.7, and no backwards incompatible changes were made except for few small things that were considered bugs.
https://bugs.python.org/issue37814:
> The empty tuple syntax in type annotations, `Tuple[()]`, is not obvious from the examples given in the documentation (I naively expected `Tuple[]` to work); it has been documented in PEP 484 and in mypy, but not in the documentation for the typing module.
