Description: When importing the redis.asyncio module, Mypy complains about the stubs not being installed. This problem does not happen when importing only the redis module.

Library stubs not installed for "redis.asyncio" (or incompatible with Python 3.10)mypy(error)
Hint: "python3 -m pip install types-redis"mypy(note)
(or run "mypy --install-types" to install all missing stub packages)mypy(note)

Hey there!

I took a first stab at lock in #2137.

Next my eyes are on either redis.client or some commands in redis.commands

@soukyomi do you have some preference on some module?

aioredis, from which (as I understand) the asyncio module was imported is typed. So it should be a matter of adopting the same stubs.

Mypy requires py.typed file to understand that a module is typed. It was removed..

@bitterteriyaki did you figure out how to fix this issue? I have just the same)

It is necessary to add a py.typed file to indicate to Mypy that the module is typed. You can open a PR yourself or ask a maintainer to do so, since I was on a lot of personal tasks at the time, I didn't do any.
