.methods on a Type are not returning the static methods of the type.

[jdunkerley]

Meta.meta Locale . methods only includes the instance methods.

To access the static methods it is necessary to get the eiganType and then call methods. The methods method should allow us to get the static methods (or not) - maybe include_static:Boolean=False and we can then opt in.

Current workaround:

    operator2 = Meta.meta Locale
    operator21 = operator2.value ...
    operator211 = Meta.type_of operator21
    operator3 = Meta.Type.Value operator211
    operator5 = operator3.methods

Meta.meta (Meta.type_of Locale) . methods seems to work as well:

> Meta.meta Locale . methods
>>> ['display_language', 'country', 'to_display_text', 'variant', 'display_country',
'language', 'to_text', 'display_variant', 'java_locale']
> Meta.meta (Meta.type_of Locale) . methods
>>> ['display_language', 'country', 'from_language_tag', 'canada_english',
'brazil', 'japan', 'india_english', 'germany', 'poland', 'pakistan_english',
'display_country', 'language', 'pakistan_urdu', 'default', 'russia', 'uk', 'variant', 'france', 'to_text',
'from_java', 'display_variant', 'italy', 'us', 'new', 'nigeria', 'south_korea', 'indonesia', 'mexico',
'to_display_text', 'china', 'Value', 'bangladesh', 'india_hindi', 'canada_french']

isn't Meta.meta (Meta.type_of Locale) . methods sufficiently good? Shouldn't I just update the documentation to describe how to get instance and how to get static methods?

Lets add as an example to the docs.
