- Test against earliest and latest minor version available on Github Actions (e.g. 3.9.0 and 3.9.7)

* Typing:

- Add types to ALL functions.

- Ensure py.typed is collected.

- Increase mypy strictness with disallow_untyped_defs, warn_redundant_casts, warn_unreachable.

- Use typing.NamedTuple and typing.OrderedDict now 3.6 dropped.

- Make Protocol classes ABCs at runtime due to new behaviour/bug in 3.9.7 & 3.10.0-rc1

* Runtime improvements:

- Add clone_multi_options support to submodule.add()

- Delay calling get_user_id() unless essential, to support sand-boxed environments.
