Description

Right now on_new_rule just filters out any rules that require a RuleConfig argument.
Which is for e.g. rules that need to call back into the AD system.
See ChainRulesCore docs https://juliadiff.org/ChainRulesCore.jl/dev/config.html
That is the safe and easy thing to do.
but we should probably make it possible to get them.
Maybe push the filtering of those out on to the end-user.

Research direction

Start by reading the on_new_rule behavior and the ChainRulesCore configuration documentation linked in the issue. Define how rules requiring a RuleConfig argument can be exposed safely while leaving filtering to end users. Done means callers can retrieve those rules without the current automatic filtering.
