Bug report

What's wrong

Prior to django-stubs 4.2.4 / mypy 1.5.1, the you could type hint a variable/class attribute as type[Model] and access .objects on it:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.db.models import Model

user_type: type[Model] = User

users = user_type.objects.all()

Note that is the real usage, the variable is a class variable that is set by derived classes.

But as of the latest django-stubs and mypy, this generates a type check error:

error: "type[Model]" has no attribute "objects"  [attr-defined]

How is that should be

No type check errors.
