Description

**Description of the false positive**

```python
if not available_handlers:
[...]
raise RuntimeError(...)

last_exception = None
for handler in available_handlers:
try:
[...]
return
except Exception as exc:
[...]
last_exception = exc
[...]
raise last_exception # type: ignore[misc]
```
LGTM complains that `last_exception` can be `None`:
> Illegal class 'NoneType' raised; will result in a TypeError being raised instead.

This can happen only if the list `available_handlers` the loop iterates over is empty. We make sure `available_handlers` is **not** empty just before the loop.
