This check is potentially problematic because it could force evaluation of
annotations unnecessarily. This doesn't trigger for builtin objects (functions,
classes, or modules) with annotations, but it could trigger for third-party objects.

The check was not particularly useful anyway, because it succeeds if __annotations__
is a dict or None, so the only thing this did was guard against objects that have an
__annotations__ attribute that is of some other type. That doesn't seem particularly
useful, so I just removed the check.
