This was needed because now Mypy correctly identified that on line #44 self._model could have been None which didn't adhere to the base class definition.

I have a draft SIP recommending a slight refactor of the commands which address this problem.

@betodealmeida I’ve been thinking about the DAOs, commands and validation a bit recently and wonder whether we should adopt the “ask for forgiveness” try approach more often which relies less on Python validation and more on the database schema (foreign keys, uniqueness constraints, etc.) for validation, i.e., the DAO or command would fail if invalid.
The benefits are that we would reduce the Python code footprint and prevent possible race conditions.

This is no longer needed. The Mypy checks ensure this can't happen.

Inconsistent return type detected with the ChartDAO implementation. Note there's no need to return instance_model as it's passed in as in input.

Wow I didn't know Python has added core support for generic types! Adding a reference here for other reviewers: https://peps.python.org/pep-0560/

SUMMARY
Per SIP-92 Proposal for restructuring the Python code base #24331 organized all the DAOs to be housed within a shared folder—the result of which highlighted numerous inconsistencies, repetition, and inefficiencies.
This PR (one of many smaller bitesized PRs) improves the typing for DAOs by introducing a generic type to ensure that the model being created, updated, deleted, etc. is in accordance with the DAO.
