Attributes

Attribute helpers for loading, registering, and setting up character attributes.

Overview

The attributes library centralizes shared attribute behavior under `lia.attribs`. It stores registered attribute definitions, loads attribute files from a directory, registers attribute metadata, resolves localized names and descriptions, and runs server-side setup callbacks for character attributes.
