Previously, we only supported attribute types which could be defined for Starlark rules, with the result that a cherry-pick in the 7.x branch exposing a formerly native-only attribute type to Starlark broke Stardoc: bazelbuild/stardoc#277
Instead of picking and choosing, let's support all attribute types, same as we already do in Bazel 8 and newer.
