Describe the bug

To increase compatibility with web3.py, allow integer for type in transaction.
https://github.com/ethereum/web3.py/blob/master/web3/types.py#L224

This will allow HTTP clients to be simpler and use integers.

@antazoey could you please clarify the issue / send a way to reproduce? thank you!

I'm guessing referring to this:

                if isinstance(txn_dict.get("type"), int):
                    txn_dict["type"] = HexBytes(txn_dict["type"]).hex()

The type field in transactions is specified as a hex-encoded integer. This has always been the standard.
