Calling a union of function types

[environment]
python-version = "3.12"

A smaller scale example

def f1() -> int:
    return 0

def f2(name: str) -> int:
    return 0

def _(flag: bool):
    if flag:
        f = f1
    else:
        f = f2
    # error: [too-many-positional-arguments]
    # error: [invalid-argument-type]
    x = f(3)

Multiple variants but only one is invalid

This test in particular demonstrates some of the smarts of this diagnostic. Namely, since only one variant is invalid, additional context specific to that variant is added to the diagnostic output. (If more than one variant is invalid, then this additional context is elided to avoid overwhelming the end user.)

def f1(a: int) -> int:
    return 0

def f2(name: str) -> int:
    return 0

def _(flag: bool):
    if flag:
        f = f1
    else:
        f = f2
    # error: [invalid-argument-type]
    x = f(3)

Try to cover all possible reasons

These tests is likely to become stale over time, but this was added when the union-specific diagnostic was initially created. In each test, we try to cover as much as we can. This is mostly just ensuring that we get test coverage for each of the possible diagnostic messages.
