Allow Any to match sequence patterns in match/case (#18448)

Fixes #17095 (comment, the primary issue was already fixed somewhere
before). Fixes #16272. Fixes #12532. Fixes #12770.

Prior to this PR mypy did not consider that `Any` can match any
patterns, including sequence patterns (e.g. `case [_]`). This PR allows
matching `Any` against any such patterns.
