sets function

[neokofg]

i think it would be great to add, sets function, it like casts, but it sets attributes when saving/creating/updating for example, column phone, you can add function to this column in sets function, for example to add + in start of value, so then we don't need to add set and get methods inside the model

protected function sets(): array
{
    return [
        'email_verified_at' => $this->someSortOfFunc(),
        'password' => fn () => some func,
    ];
}

for simple solutions we have $attributes you can set, you can also do it in the constructor, nothing wrong with that. There's the boot method.

But if we are going to do this, I suggest ditch the sets name and call it defaultAttributes. Then it says what it does.
