      A class or defined type in top scope can no longer be named 'init', 'object', 'sensitive', 'semver', 'semverrange', 'string', 'timestamp', 'timespan' or 'typeset' since those defined within core puppet. Those names can continue to be used in other scopes such as 'mymodule::object'.

    Description

      The Checker4_0 class, used for validating the AST produced by the puppet parser, keeps a list named RESERVED_TYPE_NAMES. This list is incomplete. It lacks the following entries:

          'init' => true,
      		 
          'object' => true,
      		 
          'sensitive' => true,
      		 
          'semver' => true,
      		 
          'semverrange' => true,
      		 
          'string' => true,
      		 
          'timestamp' => true,
      		 
          'timespan' => true,
      		 
          'typeset' => true,
