The current way of importing TypedDict (for type hinting) using try-except seems to confuse mypy and causes errors during type checking. See for example in: https://github.com/equinor/webviz-subsurface/runs/1647251891?check_suite_focus=true
This PR fixes the issue by checking against Python version instead of using try-except during import.

Also updated CHANGELOG to reflect the already published release 0.2.5
