Example usage:

`App::objects('plugin');` returns `array('DebugKit', 'Blog', 'User');`

`App::objects('Controller');` returns `array('PagesController', 'BlogController');`

You can also search only within a plugin's objects by using the plugin dot
syntax.

`App::objects('MyPlugin.Model');` returns `array('MyPluginPost', 'MyPluginComment');`

are commonly used by version control systems.
