This indicates at least for people using type checkers that these
classes are not designed for inheritance and we make no stability
guarantees regarding inheritance of them.
Currently this doesn't show up in the docs. Sphinx does actually support
`@final`, however it only works when imported directly from `typing`,
while we import from `_pytest.compat`.
In the future there might also be a `@sealed` decorator which would
cover some more cases.
This makes mypy raise an error whenever it detects code which is
statically unreachable, e.g.
x: int
if isinstance(x, str):
... # Statement is unreachable [unreachable]
This is really neat and finds quite a few logic and typing bugs.
Sometimes the code is intentionally unreachable in terms of types, e.g.
raising TypeError when a function is given an argument with a wrong
type. In these cases a `type: ignore[unreachable]` is needed, but I
think it's a nice code hint.

Without the patch the test fails as follows:
# Prepending should call fixup_namespace_packages.
monkeypatch.syspath_prepend("world")
> import ns_pkg.world
E ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ns_pkg.world'
