Docstring not showing when using the type statement.

[oliversheridanmethven]

When I use the type statement introduced in Python 3.12, the docstring does not show. However, when I drop this the docstring shows up. Seems like a bug:

foo = list[str]
"""This docstring shows up."""

type bar = list[str]
"""This docstring does not show up."""

Hi @oliversheridanmethven, thanks for the report!

It's a feature request rather than a bug (the language evolves and we have to keep up with it) 🙂 Good news, it's almost already supported, see mkdocstrings/griffe#348 and #221.
