Research direction

Start at src/quart/helpers.py around line 392 and inspect the abort parameter annotation and nearby type definitions. Confirm that passing a Response is supported at runtime, then update the typing so Response is accepted and verify the relevant type-checking or test checks available in the repository.

Passing a Response object to abort is valid, the typing should be corrected here
