The object function, exported by Bubblegum::Prototype, creates an anonymous
class object (blessed hashref), derived from L<Bubblegum::Prototype::Instance>.
The function can optionally take a list of key/value pairs. The keys with values
which are code references will be implemented as class methods, otherwise
will be implemented as class attributes.

    my $shrek = object
        name      => 'Shrek',
        filepath  => '/path/to/shrek',
        lastseen  => sub { (stat(shift->filepath))[8] },
        directors => ['Andrew Adamson', 'Vicky Jenson'],
        actors    => ['Mike Myers', 'Eddie Murphy', 'Cameron Diaz'],
    ;

As previously stated, with prototype-based programming, reuse is commonly
achieved by extending prototypes (i.e. cloning existing objects which also serve
as templates). The extend function, also exported by Bubblegum::Prototype,
creates an anonymous class object (blessed hashref), derived from the specified
class or object.
