    object: Throw if constructing an unregistered object inheriting from GObject
    
    When a class inherits from a GObject class, it must be always registered
    using GObject.registerClass, however gjs was accepting this silently,
    until the object wasn't passed around.
    
    To make this clearer, verify if the object's new.target is set and
    if it has the '$gtype' own property defined. Throws otherwise.
