Arguments: object &optional package
Returns the name of a class derived from an arbitrary object. When a
command that acts on a class (such as graph-subclasses) is invoked in
the Allegro development environment, the default selected-class method
finds a class to apply the command to by calling object-class on the
selected-object of the selected window. Object-class may return
nil if a class cannot be derived in some
reasonable way from the object. Object-class is bypassed if there is a
more specific selected-class method for a particular command and
selected window; these more specific methods sometimes exist when it
is not sufficient to funnel through the general selected-object in
order to derive a selected-class for the window.
