Fixes #23599
What does this implement/fix? Explain your changes.
sklearn.utils._param_validation._InstancesOf currently doesn't support numpy data types. The fix changes
self.type
intoself.param_type
to allow testing for different types than the built-in 'type'.Any other comments?
This fix is necessary to implement validate_params (#23462) in objects that have numpy data types as parameters (e.g. #23579).
