Previously, the handling of the `cleanup` attribute had some checks based on the type, but we were deducing the type after handling the attribute.
This PR fixes the way the are dealing with type checks for the `cleanup` attribute by delaying these checks after we are deducing the type.

It is also fixed in a way that the solution can be adapted for other attributes that does some type based checks.
This is the list of C/C++ attributes that are doing type based checks and will need to be fixed in additional PRs:
- CUDAShared
- MutualExclusions
- PassObjectSize
- InitPriority
- Sentinel
- AcquireCapability
- RequiresCapability
- LocksExcluded
- AcquireHandle

NB: Some attributes could have been missed in my shallow search.

Fixes #129631
