Subject: [PATCH] [3.6] Use Iterable hint instead of Sequence (#4125)

Given that the `FrozenList` type hint is `Union[List[_T], Iterable[_T]]`
the Application middleware type should not restrict to `Sequence` and
support all `Iterable` types..
(cherry picked from commit 847539567a13e78c9df892b218fdd4e530f0a44c)
