v9.40.0

Highlights

🐛 Latent runtime bugs fixed

A project-wide static type-checking pass surfaced (and fixed) a number of real, pre-existing bugs:

• Restore — a missing await in the iOS 18+ SE and Rose firmware-personalization paths (the coroutine was used instead of its result); and add_timer_tags passed the parameters dict as its own lookup key, raising unconditionally.
• Device activation — a call to a method that no longer exists (a leftover from the asyncio migration) broke activate/deactivate.
• Screen streaming — stopScreencast called a removed method, and image resizing used Image.ANTIALIAS, which was removed in Pillow 10.
• Remote discovery — get_remoted_devices used a synchronous with on an async-only context manager, so it could never run.
• Installation — upgrade() leaked extra arguments into an unrelated boolean flag.

🔍 The codebase is now type-checked (pyright, enforced in CI)

The whole package (and its tests) passes pyright in standard mode with zero errors, wired into both a pre-commit hook and a dedicated CI job (pinned to pyright@1.1.411). Type annotations are now honest about nullability and prerequisites — Optional-vs-required, raising accessors for connection state, @overloads where a return type depends on an argument — which both hardens the library and makes it far more IDE- and contributor-friendly. typing_extensions is now a direct dependency.
