             Summary: Incorrect coder inference for List and Tuple typehints.
                 Key: BEAM-4441
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4441
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: sdk-py-core
            Reporter: Valentyn Tymofieiev
            Assignee: Ahmet Altay


We seem to use a FastPrimitivesCoder for List and Tuple typehints with 
homogenous element types, and fail to do the type checking:

{code:python}
inputs = (1, "a string")
coder = typecoders.registry.get_coder(typehints.Tuple[int, str])
print(type(coder)) # <class 'apache_beam.coders.coders.TupleCoder'>
encoded = coder.encode(inputs) 
# Fails: TypeError: an integer is required - correct behaviour

coder = typecoders.registry.get_coder(typehints.Tuple[int, ...]) # A tuple of 
integers.
print(type(coder)) # <class 'apache_beam.coders.coders.FastPrimitivesCoder'> - 
wrong coder?
encoded = coder.encode(inputs)
# No errors - incorrect behavior.

coder = typecoders.registry.get_coder(typehints.List[int]) # A list of integers.
print(type(coder)) # <class 'apache_beam.coders.coders.FastPrimitivesCoder'> - 
wrong coder?
encoded = coder.encode(inputs)
# No errors - incorrect behavior.{code}
