> mini object: register as boxed type

I don't think this makes sense.

A miniobject type cannot exist, you always need to make a 'subclass'. However
the subclass will not be also a GstMiniObject, it's just a boxed type. Glib
doesn't know about the parent miniobject type.

This mean that if you make a GstMiniObject GValue, you would not be able to
assign it a GstBuffer.

As a result, you will never be able to use the GstMiniObject GType because
there exist no instances of the type.
