`request.user` is inferred as `Any | AnonymousUser` after upgrading django-stubs to 5.2.0

Bug report

What's wrong

request.user is inferred as Any | AnonymousUser after upgrading django-stubs to 5.2.0.

#651 used _UserModel from django-stubs, allowing mypy to use the correct type for custom User models. typeddjango/django-stubs@8249ccd refactored the User TypeVars, removing _UserModel.

How is that should be

request.user should be User | AnonymousUser.

System information

• OS: Ubuntu 24.04
• python version: 3.13
• django version: 5.2
• mypy version: 1.15.0
• django-stubs version: 5.2.0

I've fixed this locally and I'm happy to submit a PR, but I thought it might be a bit too presumptuous to also bump the django-stubs version (and mypy version to match that used in django-stubs)!

yes, we need to bump a version :)
