add type hints

I am still not sure about the type of extra_meta in Report because there is check about it being a list.

Should fix #108

[banesullivan]

Thank you for contributing this, @Gryfenfer97! I'll try to review merge this soon

[Gryfenfer97]

@banesullivan I still need to import Literal from typing_extension for python 3.7.
However this version is no longer supported so if you still want to support it, tell me so I can add the correct import

I also recommend you to use a static type checker when looking at the code as it reveal some problems:
ex: L363 of report.py where self._extra_meta is defined as Optional and so, can be None

for meta in self._extra_meta:
    html, i = cols(html, meta[1], meta[0], self.ncol, i)

@Gryfenfer97, apologies for my delay in addressing this. I'm curious if you'd still like to land these changes? There appears to be a few CI testing issues

The issue in Python 3.8 was not intentional. Fixed now.
My question was for python 3.7, do you still want to support it or not ? If yes I have to add typing_extension as a dependency.

[banesullivan]

Ah, let me see if we can drop support for 3.7

[banesullivan]

Given 3.7 is past end of life and PyVista (the biggest downstream dependency) has also dropped 3.7, we are good to remove it. Would you like me to handle that in a separate PR or would you be up for handling it here?

[Gryfenfer97]

I think it would make more sense in the git history to have a separate commit for it. So doing it in a separate PR would be better in my opinion

[Gryfenfer97]

I hope this commit fix all the issues

By the way, there is a bot that can apply pre-commit automatically.

[banesullivan]

I'm aware of the pre-commit bot, but this repo is generally pretty low maintenance so I haven't wanted the overhead of adding it.

Looks like 3.8 is still failing on CI for some reason
