Make NamespacePath work on object refs

Detect if the input ref is a non-func (like an `object` instance) in
which case grab its type name using `type()`. Wrap all the name-getting
into a new `_mk_fqpn()` static meth: gets the "fully qualified path
name" and returns path and name in tuple; port other methds to use it.
Refine and update the docs B)
