register_meta error messages not accurate

Description

In register_meta(), many errors thrown, read like the following one: "Meta can only be registered against a core object type." However, one can register_meta for a non-core object by adding support via the wp_object_type_exists filter.

The wording of this error can be really misleading in this case. A better error message might read "Meta can only be registered against allowed object types"
