`type(_compointer_base)` might be replaced with `_compointer_meta`.

[junkmd]

Whether it’s a remnant of Python 2.x or a legacy from the early stages of this project, the metaclass is directly accessible as shown below, it still retrieves the metaclass indirectly using type.

	_ptr_bases = (self, POINTER(bases[0]))
	# The interface 'self' is used as a mixin.
	# HACK: Could `type(_compointer_base)` be replaced with `_compointer_meta`?
	# `type(klass)` returns its metaclass.
	# Since this specification, `type(_compointer_base)` will return the
	# `_compointer_meta` type as per the class definition.
	# The reason for this implementation might be a remnant of the differences in
	# how metaclasses work between Python 3.x and Python 2.x.
	# If there are no problems with the versions of Python that `comtypes`
	# supports, this replacement could make the process flow easier to understand.
	p = type(_compointer_base)(
	f"POINTER({self.__name__})",
	_ptr_bases,
	{"__com_interface__": self, "_needs_com_addref_": None},

If it can be confirmed that there are no problems, replacing them would improve the readability of the codebase.
