Integrate Sorbet type checking

[bensheldon]

It would be nice to integrate Sorbet. I have tried before in #235, but found more sharp edges than I was comfortable with.

Short-term success is having some additional manual tooling and workflows that adds value to the development process and is not burdensome to contributors.

Long-term success would be to run Sorbet type checking as part of the CI lint process (e.g. there is a clean/green state and deviation from that state would fail CI).

@toshitapandey just wanted to check in and see if can help. I definitely want to encourage you to prioritize an incomplete PR to discuss over perfection. Thank you!

Hey, @bensheldon saw this issue is open for a long time. If someone has not taken it up already can I take it up?
Also need some more description on the same as I am new to this project.

[bensheldon]

@saksham-jain thank you for the interest! unfortunately I don't think this is a good first issue unless you've set up sorbet before. I should remove that tag.

What sort of thing are you looking to help on?

[saksham-jain]

@bensheldon Yes sorbet would be new to me. I would like to start contributing to this project with beginner-friendly issues/features. Once gets good understanding of the project can even pick bigger issues.

[bensheldon]

@saksham-jain Do you want to take #673 ?

[saksham-jain]

Sure @bensheldon. Please assign me that issue.
