public abstract class Object

`DexObject` is the basic building block of types defined within libdex.

Futures, Schedulers, and Channels all inherit from `DexObject` which provides features like thread-safe weak pointers and memory management operations.

Objects that are integrating with GIO instead inherit from their natural type in GIO.

All known sub-classes:
