Reported this initially on github - https://github.com/python/typing/pull/650

The problem is in the typing code that checks if any of the parent classes for a Protocol are builtin protocols. The code today maintains a whitelist of builtin protocols that are okay to be subclassed, but expects them all to live within the 'collections.abc' module. This means 'typing.ContextManager' and 'typing.AsyncContextManager' cannot be subclassed, even though those protocols are listing in the whitelist.

I'd like to take a stab at putting up a patch for this but I've never contributed anything to Python before, so I'll have a read through the contribution docs and put up a PR.
