Arguably, that nightmare is compile-time proof of "we are not mistaking
QAPISchemaInclude for a named entity".

When I added the include directive, I shoehorned it into the existing
representation of the QAPI schema as "list of QAPISchemaEntity" by
making it a subtype of QAPISchemaEntity.  That was a somewhat lazy hack.

Note that qapi-code-gen.rst distinguishes between definitions and
directives.

The places where mypy gripes that .name isn't 'str' generally want
something with a name (what qapi-code-gen.rst calls a definition).  If
we somehow pass them an include directive, they'll use None for a name,
which is no good.  mypy is pointing out this problem.

What to do about it?

1. Paper it over: give include directives some made-up name (this
patch).  Now the places use the made-up name instead of None, and mypy
can't see the problem anymore.

2. Assert .name is not None until mypy is happy.  I guess that's what
you called opening "a nightmare portal of whackamole".

3. Clean up the typing: have a type for top-level expression (has no
name), and a subtype for definition (has a name).  Rough sketch
appended.  Thoughts?

There are two instances of .name is None:

    def __repr__(self) -> str:
        if self.name is None:
            return "<%s at 0x%x>" % (type(self).__name__, id(self))
        return "<%s:%s at 0x%x>" % (type(self).__name__, self.name,
                                    id(self))

and

    def _def_entity(self, ent: QAPISchemaEntity) -> None:
        # Only the predefined types are allowed to not have info
        assert ent.info or self._predefining
        self._entity_list.append(ent)
        if ent.name is None:
            return
        [...]

Don't they need to be updated?
