This is a very simple first step to implementing PEP 0681, which will allow MyPy to recognize user-defined types that behave similarly to dataclasses.

This initial implementation is very limited: we only support decorator-style use of typing.dataclass_transform and do not support passing additional options to the transform (such as freeze or init).

Within MyPy, we add a new is_dataclass_transform field to FuncBase which is populated during semantic analysis. When we check for plugin hooks later, we add new special cases to use the existing dataclasses plugin if a class decorator is marked with is_dataclass_transform. Ideally we would use a proper plugin API; the hacky special case here can be replaced in subsequent iterations.

This is a very simple first step to implementing [PEP
0681](https://peps.python.org/pep-0681/#decorator-function-example),
which will allow MyPy to recognize user-defined types that behave
similarly to dataclasses.

This initial implementation is very limited: we only support
decorator-style use of `typing.dataclass_transform` and do not support
passing additional options to the transform (such as `freeze` or
`init`).

Within MyPy, we add a new `is_dataclass_transform` field to `FuncBase`
which is populated during semantic analysis. When we check for plugin
hooks later, we add new special cases to use the existing dataclasses
plugin if a class decorator is marked with `is_dataclass_transform`.
Ideally we would use a proper plugin API; the hacky special case here
can be replaced in subsequent iterations.
