…4/#593, illegalstudio#467) v0.26.1 rejected `Closure` and `object` type-hints as "Unknown type". Re-ports the illegalstudio#467 resolution (88% → 90%, 269 → 277/307): - `object` pseudo-type resolves to Mixed (elephc has no classless-object variant; Mixed boxes any value, objects included). name_resolver keeps it unprefixed; pointers.rs resolves it. - `Closure` class-name type-hint resolves to Callable (closures resolve to Callable internally) for params, returns, AND properties. PHP forbids the bare `callable` pseudo-type as a property type but PERMITS the `Closure` spelling, so resolve_declared_property_type_hint lets `Closure` through the callable restriction via type_expr_names_closure (a bare `callable` property still rejected). Clears the `Unknown type: Closure` + `Unknown type: <FQCN>` (object) family (8). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Two name-resolution completeness fixes for type positions: the
objectbuilt-in pseudo-type resolved as a namespaced class name ("Unknown type: App\object"), and theClosuretype-hint was unrecognized in param/return/property positions.objectmaps to the top object type;Closuremaps to the callable representation but stays permitted as a PROPERTY type (PHP allows a Closure-typed property while forbidding barecallablethere). Byte-parity vs PHP 8.5 + regression test.
