This draft PR is WIP. I just need the primer to run to help me figure out if I'm on a good path.

I'm not sure if this is even desired, but after building my PR for the mypyc length stuff (#19503 ) I decided to attempt to integrate it into higher level mypy stuff. This could enable new error codes such as index-range for an index which is known to be out of range

If this makes sense to add to mypy, and I am already working on similar length-based static analysis for optimizing mypyc, then I should try to proceed in as DRY a manner as possible.

Some of these internals could be repurposed in the future to allow mypy to determine the specific types of list items in some cases, even if the list itself is, for example, List[str | int]

one was a true positive, one was a false positive

I've fixed the code to handle the false positive case correctly
