unused-coroutine mypy error when not using route handlers as a decorator

Describe the bug

Hello,

When I use the route handlers not as a decorator I get mypy errors being sad that I'm not awaiting my async function

class MyClassThatHasRoutes:
    def setup_routes(self, app: sanic.Sanic[sanic.Config, SimpleNamespace]) -> None:
        app.get("/api")(self.api) # error: Value of type "Coroutine[Any, Any, HTTPResponse | None]" must be used  [unused-coroutine]

    async def api(self, request: sanic.Request) -> sanic.response.HTTPResponse:
        return sanic.empty(200)

I get that it's designed to be used as a decorator, but it makes sense where I'm doing this that I'm not.

I believe this could be fixed if RouteHandler was changed to have a return annotation of Awaitable[HTTPResponse | None] rather than Coroutine.

Is that something that could be done or do you see problems with doing that?
