Use type guards

[helderco]

As an example I specifically need them in type/definition.py to correctly narrow down the types in a codegen tool. In the meantime I've reimplemented these functions:

def is_required_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLNonNull]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLNonNull)


def is_list_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLList]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLList)


def is_wrapping_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLWrappingType]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLWrappingType)


def is_scalar_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLScalarType]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLScalarType)


def is_input_object_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLInputObjectType]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLInputObjectType)


def is_object_type(t: Any) -> TypeGuard[GraphQLObjectType]:
    return isinstance(t, GraphQLObjectType)

I thought the isinstance would be enough for the type checker to infer in these cases but if the return type is bool in these functions they're not narrowed.

Thanks for reminding me of this feature @helderco, we should definitely do that. Though it's only available since Python 3.10, it also can be used in earlier Python versions via typing-extensions.

Commited to the main branch, will be available in the next (alpha) release of version 3.3.
