type is only used as an attribute, and indicates the type of a parameter
or return value.

object indicates a GObject subclass.  They can have fields, methods,
constructors, virtual_methods, properties, and signals.

struct and boxed are non-GObject structs where boxed also has a GType.
They only have fields, methods, and ctors.
