Using type() to compare types - cannot use class that has str as base class

[netrix]

It's not possible to use StrEnum(str, Enum) object as a key because of following code: https://github.com/aio-libs/aioredis/blob/231d0418988fd870c3d26d60eec65e2fc13d0144/aioredis/util.py#L35

Unfortunately this code requires argument to by strictly str type instead of being a subclass of str.

What I'd like to achieve is following:

from enum import Enum

class StrEnum(str, Enum):
     AAA = "aaa"

# ....

rdb.hmget("key", StrEnum.AAA)

@netrix - Thanks for the submission!

I've implemented something similar here:

https://github.com/seandstewart/typical/blob/47a937fa1586c2b5bc0be6a6f89d06b089df3f3d/typic/util.py#L515-L535

If you have a moment to provide an implementation, I'd love to see a PR for this!
