Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Hello, hope you're good. I'm taking a look at the available approaches for reading custom attributes from a function definition and eventually found this page from StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/a/65157463/10146684.
The way of doing this, according to this answer from SO, demands the knowledge of the module that the function is defined, which does not really fit my needs.
Then, I thought that it could be more practical if the attributes defined for a specific function were "[bubbled-up](https://stackoverflow.com/a/1355656/10146684)" to the `FSharpFunc<_,_>` instance, so we can directly retrieve those attributes from it.
Disclaimer: I don't know the real impact of this change, but at least in theory I think it makes sense.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Replicate the function attributes at the `FSharpFunc<_,_>` instance to make it easier to retrieve this information for functions, using something like:
```fsharp
type MyAttribute(value: int) =
inherit System.Attribute()
member this.Value = value
[]
let myFunction() = ()
myFunction.GetType().GetCustomAttributes(true)
```
