Problem description
A number of the type hints have been updated for never versions of Python but are now incorrect for older versions of Python.
An example is collections.abc.Buffer which was added in Python 3.12 however there are many more examples.
If an extension is compiled against an older version of Python the stub files generated will be incorrect for that version and a static type checker will correctly throw errors.
I would expect the type hints to be correct for the version of Python the extension was compiled against regardless of which version it is.
