## Summary
Working on py-fuzzer recently (AKA, a Python project!) reminded me how
cool our "inlay hint goto-definition feature" is. So this PR adds a
bunch more of that!
I also made a couple of other minor changes to type display. For
example, in the playground, this snippet:
```py
def f(): ...
reveal_type(f.__get__)
```
currently leads to this diagnostic:
```
Revealed type: `<method-wrapper `__get__` of `f`>` (revealed-type) [Ln 2, Col 13]
```
But the fact that we have backticks both around the type display and
inside the type display isn't _great_ there. This PR changes it to
```
Revealed type: `<method-wrapper '__get__' of function 'f'>` (revealed-type) [Ln 2, Col 13]
```
which avoids the nested-backticks issue in diagnostics, and is more
similar to our display for various other `Type` variants such as
class-literal types (`<class 'Foo'>`, etc., not ``<class `Foo`>``).

## Conformance tests changes
```diff
+enums_member_values.py:85:9: error[invalid-assignment] Object of type `int` is not assignable to attribute `_value_` of type `str`
```
A true positive ✔️
```diff
-generics_self_advanced.py:35:9: error[type-assertion-failure] Argument does not have asserted type `Self@method2`
-generics_self_basic.py:14:9: error[type-assertion-failure] Argument does not have asserted type `Self@set_scale
```
Two false positives going away ✔️
```diff
+generics_syntax_infer_variance.py:82:9: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `x` on type `Self@__init__`
```
This looks like a true positive to me, even if it's not marked with `#
E` ✔️
```diff
+protocols_explicit.py:56:9: error[invalid-assignment] Object of type `tuple[int, int, str]` is not assignable to attribute `rgb` of type `tuple[int, int, int]`
```
True positive ✔️
```
+protocols_explicit.py:85:9: error[invalid-attribute-access] Cannot assign to ClassVar `cm1` from an instance of type `Self@__init__`
```
This looks like a true positive to me, even if it's not marked with `#
E`. But this is consistent with our understanding of `ClassVar`, I
think. ✔️
```py
+qualifiers_final_annotation.py:52:9: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `ID4` on type `Self@__init__`
+qualifiers_final_annotation.py:65:9: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `ID7` on type `Self@method1`
```
New true positives ✔️
```py
+qualifiers_final_annotation.py:52:9: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `ID4` on type `Self@__init__`
+qualifiers_final_annotation.py:57:13: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `ID6` on type `Self@__init__`
+qualifiers_final_annotation.py:59:13: error[invalid-assignment] Cannot assign to final attribute `ID6` on type `Self@__init__`
```
This is a new false positive, but that's a pre-existing issue on main
(if you annotate with `Self`):

## Ecosystem
* There are 5931 new `unresolved-attribute` and 3292 new
`possibly-missing-attribute` attribute errors, way too many to look at
all of them. I randomly sampled 15 of these errors and found:
* 13 instances where there was simply no such attribute that we could
plausibly see. Sometimes [I didn't find it
anywhere](8644d886c6/openlibrary/plugins/openlibrary/tests/test_listapi.py (L33)).
Sometimes it was set externally on the object. Sometimes there was some
[`setattr` dynamicness going
on](a49f6b927d/setuptools/wheel.py (L88-L94)).
I would consider all of them to be true positives.
* 1 instance where [attribute was set on `obj` in
`__new__`](9e87b44fd4/sympy/tensor/array/array_comprehension.py (L45C1-L45C36)),
which we don't support yet
* 1 instance [where the attribute was defined via `__slots__`
](e250ec0fc8/lib/spack/spack/vendor/pyrsistent/_pdeque.py (L48C5-L48C14))
* I see 44 instances [of the false positive
above](https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/1409) with `Final`
instance attributes being set in `__init__`. I don't think this should
block this PR.

## Summary
- Type checkers (and type-checker authors) think in terms of types, but
I think most Python users think in terms of values. Rather than saying
that a _type_ `X` "has no attribute `foo`" (which I think sounds strange
to many users), say that "an object of type `X` has no attribute `foo`"
- Special-case certain types so that the diagnostic messages read more
like normal English: rather than saying "Type `<class 'Foo'>` has no
attribute `bar`" or "Object of type `<class 'Foo'>` has no attribute
`bar`", just say "Class `Foo` has no attribute `bar`"
## Test Plan
Mdtests and snapshots updated
## Summary
Modify the (external) signature of instance methods such that the first
parameter uses `Self` unless it is explicitly annotated. This allows us
to correctly type-check more code, and allows us to infer correct return
types for many functions that return `Self`. For example:
```py
from pathlib import Path
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
reveal_type(Path(".config") / ".ty") # now Path, previously Unknown
def _(dt: datetime, delta: timedelta):
reveal_type(dt - delta) # now datetime, previously Unknown
```

## Performance
I ran benchmarks locally on `attrs`, `freqtrade` and `colour`, the
projects with the largest regressions on CodSpeed. I see much smaller
effects locally, but can definitely reproduce the regression on `attrs`.
From looking at the profiling results (on Codspeed), it seems that we
simply do more type inference work, which seems plausible, given that we
now understand much more return types (of many stdlib functions). In
particular, whenever a function uses an implicit `self` and returns
`Self` (without mentioning `Self` anywhere else in its signature), we
will now infer the correct type, whereas we would previously return
`Unknown`. This also means that we need to invoke the generics solver in
more cases. Comparing half a million lines of log output on attrs, I can
see that we do 5% more "work" (number of lines in the log), and have a
lot more `apply_specialization` events (7108 vs 4304). On freqtrade, I
see similar numbers for `apply_specialization` (11360 vs 5138 calls).
Given these results, I'm not sure if it's generally worth doing more
performance work, especially since none of the code modifications
themselves seem to be likely candidates for regressions.

## Test Plan
New Markdown tests
## Ecosystem report
* apprise: ~300 new diagnostics related to problematic stubs in apprise
😩
* attrs: a new true positive, since [this
function](4e2c89c823/tests/test_make.py (L2135))
is missing a `@staticmethod`?
* Some legitimate true positives
* sympy: lots of new `invalid-operator` false positives in [matrix
multiplication](cf9f4b6805/sympy/matrices/matrixbase.py (L3267-L3269))
due to our limited understanding of [generic `Callable[[Callable[[T1,
T2], T3]], Callable[[T1, T2], T3]]` "identity"
types](cf9f4b6805/sympy/core/decorators.py (L83-L84))
of decorators. This is not related to type-of-self.
## Typing conformance results
The changes are all correct, except for
```diff
+generics_self_usage.py:50:5: error[invalid-assignment] Object of type `def foo(self) -> int` is not assignable to `(typing.Self, /) -> int`
```
which is related to an assignability problem involving type variables on
both sides:
```py
class CallableAttribute:
def foo(self) -> int:
return 0
bar: Callable[[Self], int] = foo # <- we currently error on this assignment
```

## Summary
Add support for `@staticmethod`s. Overall, the changes are very similar
to #16305.
#18587 will be dependent on this PR for a potential fix of
https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/207.
mypy_primer will look bad since the new code allows ty to check more
code.
## Test Plan
Added new markdown tests. Please comment if there's any missing tests
that I should add in, thank you.
## Summary
This PR resolves the way diagnostics are reported for an invalid call to
an overloaded function.
If any of the steps in the overload call evaluation algorithm yields a
matching overload but it's type checking that failed, the
`no-matching-overload` diagnostic is incorrect because there is a
matching overload, it's the arguments passed that are invalid as per the
signature. So, this PR improves that by surfacing the diagnostics on the
matching overload directly.
It also provides additional context, specifically the matching overload
where this error occurred and other non-matching overloads. Consider the
following example:
```py
from typing import overload
@overload
def f() -> None: ...
@overload
def f(x: int) -> int: ...
@overload
def f(x: int, y: int) -> int: ...
def f(x: int | None = None, y: int | None = None) -> int | None:
return None
f("a")
```

## Test Plan
Update test cases, resolve existing todos and validate the updated
snapshots.
## Summary
This PR partially solves https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/164
(derived from #17643).
Currently, the definitions we manage are limited to those for simple
name (symbol) targets, but we expand this to track definitions for
attribute and subscript targets as well.
This was originally planned as part of the work in #17643, but the
changes are significant, so I made it a separate PR.
After merging this PR, I will reflect this changes in #17643.
There is still some incomplete work remaining, but the basic features
have been implemented, so I am publishing it as a draft PR.
Here is the TODO list (there may be more to come):
* [x] Complete rewrite and refactoring of documentation (removing
`Symbol` and replacing it with `Place`)
* [x] More thorough testing
* [x] Consolidation of duplicated code (maybe we can consolidate the
handling related to name, attribute, and subscript)
This PR replaces the current `Symbol` API with the `Place` API, which is
a concept that includes attributes and subscripts (the term is borrowed
from Rust).
## Test Plan
`mdtest/narrow/assignment.md` is added.
