Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, attr-sorted is a native rule, sorting a limited set of properties.

There are many properties missing, and adding all properties in a single way is hard to maintain.

Describe the solution you'd like

This could be fixed by sorting HTML attributes specific to a particular tag.

Additionally, by making sorting per-HTML tag, this would make overriding the configuration easier and less-repetitive

Research direction

Start with src/core/rules/attr-sorted.ts, the current native rule and its limited property set. Trace how the rule configuration is defined and overridden, then determine how tag-specific sorting should be represented. Done means attributes can be sorted according to the relevant HTML tag while configuration overrides are less repetitive.
