Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Python type hints (which can be validated using mypy or Pylance in vscode) are very helpful; fitz_new has much better coverage than fitz in this regard. However several methods are dynamically assigned (eg. Page.get_text is assigned from utils.get_text). These types are not visible to the typechecker.

Describe the solution you'd like
Use a type stub file to describe the type signatures of these functions so that typecheckers can see them, and include the typestub in PEP 484/561 - compliant fashion.

Thank you!

Alternatively, instead of the dynamic assignment, use some kind of mixin class, or make the utils functions the dynamically assigned ones (since the docs all refer to the Page/Document class methods)
