Pickles of type variables and subscripted generics are now future-proof
and compatible with older Python versions.

This removes a hack and replaces it with a proper
mapping {'list': 'List', 'dict': 'Dict', ...}.

This also fixes python/typingGH-512
This also fixes python/typingGH-511
As was discussed in both issues, some typing forms deserve to be treated
as immutable by copy and pickle modules, so that:
* copy(X) is X
* deepcopy(X) is X
* loads(dumps(X)) is X GH- pickled by reference
This PR adds such behaviour to:
* Type variables
* Special forms like Union, Any, ClassVar
* Unsubscripted generic aliases to containers like List, Mapping, Iterable
This not only resolves inconsistencies mentioned in the issues, but also
improves backwards compatibility with previous versions of Python
(including 3.6).
Note that this requires some dances with __module__ for type variables
(similar to NamedTuple) because the class TypeVar itself is define in typing,
while type variables should get module where they were defined.

This makes the default behavior (without specifying `globalns` manually) more
predictable for users, finds the right globalns automatically.
Implementation for classes assumes has a `__module__` attribute and that module
is present in `sys.modules`. It does this recursively for all bases in the
MRO. For modules, the implementation just uses their `__dict__` directly.
This is backwards compatible, will just raise fewer exceptions in naive user
code.
Originally implemented and reviewed at https://github.com/python/typing/pull/470.
This PR contains two updates to typing module:
- Support ContextManager on all versions (original PR by Jelle Zijlstra).
- Add generic AsyncContextManager.
