[stable-2.18] Cover unit tests with mypy (#84084) (#84086)

* Added support for testing unit tests with mypy.
* Added support for ignoring individual mypy error codes.
* Added missing assert on unit tests and marked xfail.
* Added type hints for some unit tests.
* Added ignores for unit tests not passing mypy.
* Fixed incorrect autouse argument in unit test fixtures.
* Fixed minor issues causing problems with mypy in unit tests.

(cherry picked from commit 955e310b4c)
