it looks to me as if a detached garage is a "dwelling"; but probably not a "residence" since people do not reside there overnight.

Actually based on the definitions, it seems to me like a garage is closer to the definition of a "residence", since residence doesn't mention having to stay overnight, ie "resides temporarily". However, it seems likely that it would be covered under "dwelling" since dwelling includes attached porches, "but is not limited to".
"But is not limited to" is often an appeal to a common sense approach indicating that all such locations cannot be listed in the law and so one must appeal to common sense to answer the question.
Overall, I'm sure it's included under one of those places.
