[New-bugs-announce] [issue36810] Recursive type annotations do not work in documentation tests

[Lovasoa]

New submission from Lovasoa <pere.jobs at gmail.com>:

When using documentations tests to test a function that uses typing.get_type_hints, an error is thrown.

The error is thrown when trying to get the type hints for a class that was defined in a documentation test.

I was able to reproduce it both on current and PEP563 type annotations: https://gist.github.com/lovasoa/74ea62a89f5bf073b0e0c2f222008ae3
