Description
Originally reported by: **Anonymous**
----------------------------------------
New states can't repeat because the repeat system has hardcoded `(normal-state-p)' etc.
See `evil-repeat-pre-hook', `evil-repeat-post-hook' and `evil-repeat' (at least).

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the Emacs Lisp definitions of evil-repeat-pre-hook, evil-repeat-post-hook, and evil-repeat, focusing on the hardcoded normal-state checks mentioned in the issue. Trace how repeat behavior is selected for states, then verify that newly defined states can repeat without changing the existing behavior.
