Which library does boost::type belong to?

I was trying to solve a problem with boost::mpl::for_each, when I came across this question. The answer mentions a type named boost::type. It works well if I include <boost/type.hpp>. My question is, which Boost library it belongs to? Is it documented anywhere? While it really is just a dumb empty template, I guess it should have a documentation somewhere if it is in the main boost namespace.

Looking at the boost github repository <boost/type.hpp> is located in the submodule core:

https://github.com/boostorg/core

https://github.com/boostorg/core/blob/master/include/boost/type.hpp

So it seems to be part of the Boost Core library, however there seems to be no documentation available for this specific file.
