[ty] Generic types aliases (implicit and PEP 613) (#21553)
## Summary

Add support for generic PEP 613 type aliases and generic implicit type
aliases:
```py
from typing import TypeVar

T = TypeVar("T")
ListOrSet = list[T] | set[T]

def _(xs: ListOrSet[int]):
    reveal_type(xs)  # list[int] | set[int]
```

Correct new diagnostic ✔️

-generics_variance.py:196:25: error[non-subscriptable] Cannot subscript object of type `<class 'Contra[typing.TypeVar]'>` with no `__class_getitem__` method
```

One of these should apparently be an error, but not of this kind, so
this is good ✔️

```diff
-specialtypes_type.py:152:16: error[invalid-type-form] `typing.TypeVar` is not a generic class
-specialtypes_type.py:156:16: error[invalid-type-form] `typing.TypeVar` is not a generic class
```

Good, those were false positives. ✔️ 

I skipped the analysis for everything involving `TypeVarTuple`.

## Ecosystem impact

**[Full report with detailed
diff](https://david-generic-implicit-alias.ecosystem-663.pages.dev/diff)**

Previous iterations of this PR showed all kinds of problems. In it's
current state, I do not see any large systematic problems, but it is
hard to tell with 5k diagnostic changes.

## Performance

* There is a huge 4x regression in `colour-science/colour`, related to
[this large
file](https://github.com/colour-science/colour/blob/develop/colour/io/luts/tests/test_lut.py)
with [many assignments of hard-coded arrays (lists of lists) to
`np.NDArray`
types](83e754c8b6/colour/io/luts/tests/test_lut.py (L701-L781))
that we now understand. We now take ~2 seconds to check this file, so
definitely not great, but maybe acceptable for now.
