rename bittensor/types.py to bittensor/bt_types.py to prevent mixups …

…after pip install Although it seems common to have types.py (e.g. scalecodec, torch, substrateinterface) this may lead to issues after applying pip install -e to a package, as is suggested for bittensor (see git grep 'pip install -e.* bittensor') Issues were observed where circular imports would arise as Python's native typing.py would include bittensor's types.py.
