bpo-45192: Fix a bug that infers the type of an os.PathLike[bytes] object as str

[rekyungmin]

The tempfile module has been updated to accept an object implementing os.PathLike protocol for path-related parameters as of Python 3.6 (e.g. dir parameter). An os.PathLike object represents a filesystem path as a str or bytes object (i.e. def __fspath__(self) -> Union[str, bytes]:). However, if an object implementing os.PathLike[bytes] is passed as a dir argument, a TypeError is raised:

fromtypingimportUnionclassFakePath: def__init__(self, path): self.path=pathdef__fspath__(self) ->Union[str, bytes]: returnself.pathif__name__=="__main__": fromtempfileimportTemporaryDirectory# You need to create `existing_path` directorywithTemporaryDirectory(dir=FakePath("existing_path")) asstr_path: print(str_path) # 'existing_path/...'withTemporaryDirectory(dir=FakePath(b"existing_path")) asbyte_path: print(byte_path) # expected b'existing_path/...' but raised TypeError

This bug occurs because the tempfile._infer_return_type function considers all non-bytes objects as str.

_infer_return_type function should infer os.PathLike[str] object as str type and os.PathLike[bytes] object as bytes type.
