Problem

Calling an attribute via

#[attribute]
fn foo(...){}

comptime fn attribute(f: FunctionDefinition) {...}

Currently does not allow additional arguments besides f to be passed.

Happy Case

We should allow additional arguments which are Quoted by default (a bit awkward but gives some surface-level familiarity with rust and some flexibility in interpreting these values).

These arguments should all be placed after the FunctionDefiniton / StructDefinition argument.

# Description

## Problem\*

Resolves #5473
Resolves #5476

## Summary\*

Allows arguments to attribute functions.
- These arguments are all quoted by default. This is to replicate
something like Rust's `#[derive(Foo, Bar)]` where `Foo` and `Bar` are
meant to be traits rather than values in scope.
- Varargs is also possible if the attribute accepts a slice of Quoted
values rather than individual Quoted arguments.

## Additional Context

- [ ] No documentation needed.

# PR Checklist\*

- [x] I have formatted the changes with [Prettier](https://prettier.io/)
and/or `cargo fmt` on default settings.
