annotationlib is used quite a few times in typing.py, but I think the
usages are just rare enough that this makes sense.
The import would get triggered by:
functions
"Final['x']" will trigger an annotationlib import in order to access the
ForwardRef class).
Lots of programs will want to use typing without any of these, so the tradeoff
seems worth it.
