This uses `Cursor.from_cursor_result` to create the return value. That function returns `None` if it is passed the Null-Cursor, leading to the `Cursor | None` return type.
That said, the input to it is `clang_getCanonicalCursor` which does not seem to ever return the Null-Cursor, so we could theoretically constrain the return type here to just `Cursor`, by asserting `isinstance(the_return_value, Cursor)`, but this is a bit ugly... what do you think?
