Properties: add support for object type

Feature archive

Use case or problem

I would like to add objects type in the properties of a file (in the frontmatter) in order to have advanced metadata on files and dataview queries.

Proposed solution

Add an object type that allows to edit the frontmatter easily.

Current workaround (optional)

Use the source mode for editing the frontmatter of the file.
