Description

## Overview

From the docs:

> The include target searched by import must match: '..sh'. The 'content type' is generally something like 'func' or 'inline', but is not currently standard.

Is there a use to recognizing certain target 'types'?

## Deliverables

* [ ] Either come up with an updated spec that recognizes different types (for a purpose) and how they are handled _**or**_ specify that the type is useful for file organization, but ignored.
* [ ] Even if ignored (or otherwise non-functional) suggest standard types like `func`, `funcs`, and `inline`.

## Notes

Possible use cases:
* `foo.inline-always.sh` triggers unavoidable/baked-in `bash-rollup-always-inline` behavior.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the documented include-target pattern and the listed use case for foo.inline-always.sh. Define whether target types have behavior or are only organizational, then document the decision, handling rules, and standard names such as func, funcs, and inline.
