I prefer to have a separate lookup routine. A gdb.lookup_type function
would be more consistent with the little API direction we already have
than a Type.lookup static method (I remember we discussed module
functions vs static methods in the past, I don't remember the outcome
though). Well, you asked what I thought. :-)
I don't want to inflict any pain on you, though. I don't feel strongly
about these choices. I wouldn't mind if you preferred to keep it like
this. Or if you preferred to implement Type.lookup.
