This module was originally introduced in 2016 to assist adding mypy
annotations to the project. Back then static type checking was not that
established throughout the codebase, so it was helpful to be able to
print out the types for type checking purposes.
This workflow is no longer helpful for improving type annotations right
now, and it has been unused for a while.

We only use this in a few places, but they're really important places
for understanding the types in the codebase, and so it's worth having
a bit of expository documentation explaining how we use it.
(And I expect we'll add more with time).
mypy in daemon mode takes some 400 MiB of memory, and cannot follow
imports of type-annotated third-party packages; meanwhile, non-daemon
mode is no longer nearly as slow as it once was.

As a result of dropping support for trusty, we can remove our old
pattern of putting `if False` before importing the typing module,
which was essential for Python 3.4 support, but not required and maybe
harmful on newer versions.

The testing section is more appropriate, since it's fundamentally part
of our CI system.
While we're at it, fix the fact that we were linking to GitHub, not
ReadTheDocs, in the run-mypy output.
