  LinearAlgebra.Factorization

  Abstract type for matrix factorizations
  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_decomposition) a.k.a. matrix
  decompositions. See online documentation for a list of available matrix
  factorizations.

It should probably be subtyping that.

Research direction

Start at the LU and QR factorization types in StaticArrays.jl and compare their supertypes with the documented LinearAlgebra.Factorization{T} entry point. Done means both factorization types subtype Factorization{T} and the resulting hierarchy matches Julia's LinearAlgebra documentation.
