* Use `_typeshed.SupportsItems` instead of custom `_HasItems` protocol. * Use a custom covariant protocol for mailbox messages. * Add `Mailbox._dump_message`. * Return a protocol from abstract method `Mailbox.get_file()`. * Return concrete type `BytesIO` instead of `typing.IO` from `Babyl.get_file()`. * Use our custom protocol instead of semi-protocol `typing.IO` in the remaining cases. Closes: python#14935

This protocol is only generic, because _ProxyFile (and _PartialFile) are unnecessarily generic at runtime.

Since this was changed upstream, I removed the generic marker here and for _ProxyFile, even if the latter was technically generic up until Python 3.14.
