Represents metadata about a type (class, interface, or value).
When an assembly is constructed, one kType instance is created for every type defined in the assembly. kAssembly methods can be used to discover the types in the assembly, and kType methods can be used to learn about individual types (e.g., type name, base class).
The kObject_Type method can be used to obtain type information for any object derived from kObject. The kTypeOf macro can be used to obtain type information for any class, interface, or value by compile-time type symbol.
