/**
 * Marks user-defined attributes for auto-generated inspector controls.
 *
 * This filter runs during block type registration, before the WP_Block_Type
 * is instantiated. Block supports add their attributes AFTER the block type
 * is created (via {@see WP_Block_Supports::register_attributes()}), so any attributes
 * present at this stage are user-defined.
 *
 * The marker tells generateFieldsFromAttributes() which attributes should
 * get auto-generated inspector controls. Attributes are excluded if they:
 * - Have a 'source' (HTML-derived, edited inline not via inspector)
 * - Have role 'local' (internal state, not user-configurable)
 * - Have an unsupported type (only 'string', 'number', 'integer', 'boolean' are supported)
 * - Were added by block supports (added after this filter runs)
 *
 * @since 7.0.0
 * @access private
 *
 * @param array<string, mixed> $args Array of arguments for registering a block type.
 * @return array<string, mixed> Modified block type arguments.
