## Summary
This PR adds extra validation for `isinstance()` and `issubclass()`
calls that use `UnionType` instances for their second argument.
According to typeshed's annotations, any `UnionType` is accepted for the
second argument, but this isn't true at runtime: at runtime, all
elements in the `UnionType` must either be class objects or be `None` in
order for the `isinstance()` or `issubclass()` call to reliably succeed:
```pycon
% uvx python3.14
Python 3.14.0 (main, Oct 10 2025, 12:54:13) [Clang 20.1.4 ] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from typing import LiteralString
>>> import types
>>> type(LiteralString | int) is types.UnionType
True
>>> isinstance(42, LiteralString | int)
Traceback (most recent call last):
