register_meta( $object_type, $meta_key, $args, $deprecated = null )   X-Ref
Registers a meta key.

It is recommended to register meta keys for a specific combination of object type and object subtype. If passing
an object subtype is omitted, the meta key will be registered for the entire object type, however it can be partly
overridden in case a more specific meta key of the same name exists for the same object type and a subtype.

If an object type does not support any subtypes, such as users or comments, you should commonly call this function
without passing a subtype.

param: string       $object_type Type of object metadata is for. Accepts 'post', 'comment', 'term', 'user',
param: string       $meta_key    Meta key to register.
param: array        $args {

param: string $meta_key  Metadata key.
param: bool   $single    If true, return only the first value of the specified `$meta_key`.
param: string $meta_type Type of object metadata is for. Accepts 'post', 'comment', 'term', 'user',
return: mixed An array of default values if `$single` is false.

registered_meta_key_exists( $object_type, $meta_key, $object_subtype = '' )   X-Ref

param: string $meta_key       Metadata key.
param: string $object_subtype Optional. The subtype of the object type. Default empty string.
return: bool True if the meta key is registered to the object type and, if provided,

unregister_meta_key( $object_type, $meta_key, $object_subtype = '' )   X-Ref

The results include both meta that is registered specifically for the
object's subtype and meta that is registered for the entire object type.

_wp_register_meta_args_allowed_list( $args, $default_args )   X-Ref
Filters out `register_meta()` args based on an allowed list.

`register_meta()` args may change over time, so requiring the allowed list
to be explicitly turned off is a warranty seal of sorts.

param: array $args         Arguments from `register_meta()`.
param: array $default_args Default arguments for `register_meta()`.
return: array Filtered arguments.

get_object_subtype( $object_type, $object_id )   X-Ref
