Incompatible types at # type: ignore

[jolaf]

The following code:

from pytypes import TypeChecker

def f() -> None: # type: ignore # blah
    pass

with TypeChecker():
    f()

fails as follows:

$ python3 Test.py
/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/pytypes-1.0b5.post23-py3.6.egg/pytypes/type_util.py:2534: UserWarning: the system profiling hook has changed unexpectedly
  warn('the system profiling hook has changed unexpectedly')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Test.py", line 7, in <module>
    f()
  File "Test.py", line 3, in f
    def f() -> None: # type: ignore # blah
TypeError: __main__.f declares incompatible types:
Via hints:   (Tuple[], NoneType)
Via comment: None

The problem disappears if # blah is removed.

Not a solution as this is actually a symptom of pytypes being unaware of ignore:
You can work around this by setting pytypes.strict_annotation_collision_check = False.

Ah, sorry; I recognized that this workaround wouldn't do it because pytypes still asserts that a concurrent type string to a type annotation would yield the same type. It would be an easy fix to disable this or to allow an opt-out of this check. However for the reason explained in #78 (comment) I won't fix this before end of next week.
