Description
**Problem**
Transform functions are how we track changes to eventtypes as events flow through the system. To support the CESL filter, we should implement a transform function to represent how a given eventtype becomes "narrower" as it passes the filter. Specifically, this transform function should perform changes to the attributes on the eventtype corresponding to how the CESQL expression would set requirements on the attributes of a given event.
For example, if there is an expression `id = 123`, then the `id` attribute should be set equal to `123`, if that is possible given the other constraints

Research direction
The issue provides no file or test entry point; begin by locating the existing eventtype transform-function and CESQL filter implementations in the repository. Define how filter expressions such as `id = 123` narrow event attributes, and establish binary tests and exit criteria before implementation, since the current issue leaves them blank.
