### Attribute access on `Any`
The union of the set of types that `Any` could materialise to is equivalent to `object`. It follows
from this that attribute access on `Any` resolves to `Any` if the attribute does not exist on
`object` -- but if the attribute *does* exist on `object`, the type of the attribute is
`<type as it exists on object> & Any`.
```py
from typing import Any
class Foo(Any): ...
reveal_type(Foo.bar) # revealed: Any
reveal_type(Foo.__repr__) # revealed: Literal[__repr__] & Any
```
Similar principles apply if `Any` appears in the middle of an inheritance hierarchy:
```py
from typing import ClassVar, Literal
class A:
x: ClassVar[Literal[1]] = 1
class B(Any): ...
class C(B, A): ...
reveal_type(C.__mro__) # revealed: tuple[Literal[C], Literal[B], Any, Literal[A], Literal[object]]
reveal_type(C.x) # revealed: Literal[1] & Any
```
### Unions with all paths unbound
If the symbol is unbound in all elements of the union, we detect that:
