…re on Python 3.14 Since PEP 649 (Python 3.14), annotations are lazily evaluated and inspect.signature() resolves them eagerly by default. Event listeners and locator handlers annotated with names that only exist under `if TYPE_CHECKING:` therefore raised NameError when the signature was inspected, even though only the parameter list is needed. Ask for unresolved forward references instead. Fixes: microsoft/playwright#42857

Summary
inspect.signature()evaluates the lazily-computed annotations (PEP 649/749) by default, so event listeners and locator handlers annotated with names that only exist underif TYPE_CHECKING:raisedNameErrorwhen Playwright inspected the handler signature — even though only the parameter list is used.signature()compat helper that passesannotation_format=Format.FORWARDREFon Python 3.14+ and is a plaininspect.signature()on older versions, and use it at the two call sites (wrap_handler,LocatorHandler.__call__).Fixes microsoft/playwright#42857
