If you're reading about this commit from an autogenerated changelog entry, this should have no user-visible impact on how the stubs are interpreted by a type checker; it's just an internal change to how typeshed's tests work.
We're about to get a daily test failure with 63 stubtest errors (see the Ubuntu stubtest failure in #9187) due to the release of redis-py 4.3.5, and I'd rather that didn't happen.
I'm not sure what the best way to do this is. This effectively orphans
types-typing-extensions, but maybe that's not really a problem. (We can
yank the package too)
