An object containing credentials. 
The Credentials type is a reference-counted wrapper for native credentials. This information is typically used for identifying, authenticating and authorizing other processes.
Some operating systems supports looking up the credentials of the remote peer of a communication endpoint - see e.g. Gio::Socket::get_credentials().
Some operating systems supports securely sending and receiving credentials over a Unix Domain Socket, see UnixCredentialsMessage, Gio::UnixConnection::send_credentials() and Gio::UnixConnection::receive_credentials() for details.
On Linux, the native credential type is a struct ucred - see the unix(7) man page for details. This corresponds to Gio::CREDENTIALS_TYPE_LINUX_UCRED.
On FreeBSD, the native credential type is a struct cmsgcred. This corresponds to Gio::CREDENTIALS_TYPE_FREEBSD_CMSGCRED.
