/CC: @hippo91, @Pierre-Sassoulas

As discussed, this is the followup to #921. It addresses almost all test cases defined in pylint-dev/pylint#4239 with the exception that it can't detect the wrong usage of re.Pattern and re.Match in PY37 and 38. See example below. This would require changes to the brain_re.py which is out of scope for this MR. (Probably not worth it to begin with)

import re
re.Pattern[str]       # [unsubscriptable-object]
re.Match[str]         # [unsubscriptable-object]
var: re.Pattern[int]  # [unsubscriptable-object]

Small update: I've updated the brain for the re module. With that, all test cases are passing now!

If there are no objections, I would like to merge this by this weekend. After a new astroid release, we would finally be able to close this chapter.

I think @hippo91 is the one that will really understand what he's reviewing :D I did not see anything wrong with the changes myself.

Well done. I do not know how i can have missed that.

I like very much this concise style! 👍
However you delete a lot of comments. It is not a pb for me if you think they where not helpful.

I tend to prefer less / only the necessary comments. Most information is contained in the code already. Comments also have the habit of becoming outdated pretty quickly at which point they are more confusion than actually helpful.
