In parsnip's multi_predict() for glment models, we call parsnip:::check_pred_type() which we might want to export for this.

> linear_reg(penalty = 0.01) %>%
+       set_engine("glmnet") %>%

+       multi_predict(mtcars, type = "class")
Error in `multi_predict()`:
! For class predictions, the object should be a classification model.
