Description
seems similar to #2563, #3482, #8869, #11211, #12673 -- though those are mostly about decorated descriptors
Bug Report
simple, silly example:
class C:
def f(self) -> None: pass
def g(self) -> None:
print(self.f.__func__)
C().g()
Expected Behavior
no error
Actual Behavior
$ ./.venv/bin/mypy t.py
t.py:5: error: "Callable[[], None]" has no attribute "__func__" [attr-defined]
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 1 source file)
$ ./.venv/bin/mypy --version
mypy 0.991 (compiled: yes)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with the Python snippet in t.py and the documented mypy 0.991 command. Trace how mypy infers the type of self.f and handles access to func. Done means the example type-checks without the attr-defined error while existing method and descriptor checks remain passing.
