Stardoc with Bazel 7.4 / 7.5 fails on attr.string_keyed_label_dict.

[r0bobo]

It seems like stardoc doesn't support the string_keyed_label_dict attribute.
I get errors like this if I try to generate documentation for rules with that attribute type.

ERROR: /.../BUILD.bazel:15:23: in starlark_doc_extract rule //bazel/docs:foo.extract: in rule bar attribute baz: unsupported type DictType
ERROR: /.../BUILD.bazel:15:23: Analysis of target '//bazel/docs:foo.extract' failed

Thanks. Confirming. Unfortunately, fixing this requires changes in both Bazel (hopefully we can get this into Bazel 8.1.0) and Stardoc :/

Actually, not confirming, this should have been fixed already by bazelbuild/bazel@1ce4ab1 which is part of Bazel 8.0.0 and higher.

@r0bobo - which version of Bazel and Stardoc are you using where you see these symptoms?

I see now, the issue was introduced by bazelbuild/bazel#23998 - the string_keyed_label_dict was cherry-picked back into Bazel 7.4, but the corresponding changes for doc extraction were not cherry-picked; and since the updated tests for doc extraction weren't cherrypicked into 7.4 either, the cherry-pickers did not realize the problem :/

Aha ok! Yeah, you're right. I'm on Bazel 7.4.1 / Stardoc 0.8.0. I will hopefully manage to upgrade to Bazel 8.x soon anyway. :)

(I see that it might get cherrypicked into 7.5 as well from the PR you linked.)
