setAttributes should be exposed for overriding on the autofields object

See original GitHub issue

It would be helpful (and make this plugin more useful/extensible) if setAttributes was exposed for overriding (monkey-patching) on the autofields object.

If a consumer wants to override that method, currently they have to do the following (in addition to writing their own implementation):

Create a local dictionary of mutators & overriding registerMutator to use that
Duplicating getLabel & getInput & modifying them to use the replacement setAttributes implementation
Duplicating getFieldContainer & modifying it to use the replacement setAttributes implementation
Overriding the field method ($autofieldsProvider.field) with an implementation that uses the custom getFieldContainer imlpementation. This will use the local dictionary of mutators.

All that could be avoided if Autofields exposed (and used) setAttributes on the autofields object.

As a less pressing issue, it would be handy if the helper (i.e. CamelToTitle etc) was exposed too.
