gh-152692: Fix annotationlib.type_repr() for bound built-in methods

type_repr() returned a string naming a nonexistent module None -- e.g.
type_repr([].append) == 'None.list.append' -- for bound built-in methods,
whose __module__ is None.

Return the qualified name when __module__ is None, as already done for the
"builtins" module.
