Pyright: __path__ is inferred an Iterable[str] rather than list

[tekumara]

import packagename

path = packagename.__path__[0]

Errors with:

  3:8 - error: "__getitem__" method not defined on type "Iterable[str]" (reportGeneralTypeIssues)

However:

Thanks for the bug report. The fix will be in the next release.

This is addressed in Pyright 1.1.72, which I just published. It will also be in the next release of Pylance.
