Ralf Gommers b430347a60 Address JIT/Mypy issue with torch._VF (#43454)
Summary:
- `torch._VF` is a hack to work around the lack of support for `torch.functional` in the JIT
- that hack hides `torch._VF` functions from Mypy
- could be worked around by re-introducing a stub file for `torch.functional`, but that's undesirable
- so instead try to make both happy at the same time: the type ignore comments are needed for Mypy, and don't seem to affect the JIT after excluding them from the `get_type_line()` logic

Encountered this issue while trying to make `mypy` run on `torch/functional.py` in gh-43446.

This makes the functions in torch._C._VariableFunctions available as

A subset of those functions are mapped to ATen functions in
