Fixes #1186.
Handles cases such as:

class A: ...
class Bar: ...
def tmp(v: 'List[str]') -> 'List[str]'
def tmp(v: 'Bar') -> List['Bar']
def tmp(v: 'str') -> 'A'

So instead of returning unknown, we try to evaluate what is inside the quotes.

  • Updated the type annotation hint code to handle forward references so parameters get the correct types.
  • Handled values in quotes when creating Generic types
  • Handled forward reference return value hints

I updated the tests because the return documentation for a method inside a class is our own analyzed return value, but for unbound functions, we just use the regular return documentation. I think to be consistent we should also return our analyzed return value.
