Error in Python link mypy: "object" has no attribute "close"

[ibc]

NOTE: Due to this bug, lintPython() is commented out in checkRelease() in npm-scripts.mjs. Also, in CI file, npm run lint:node is used instead of npm run lint to avoid this issue.

$ npm run lint:python


> mediasoup-client-aiortc@3.7.3 lint:python
> node npm-scripts.mjs lint:python

Offending code is this (one of them):

if self._writer is not None:
            self._writer.close()

Note that self._writer is defined as follows:

self._writer = Union[StreamWriter, None]

However, in theory, we are checking that it's not None but ¯_(ツ)_/¯
