Allow proc defaults with the Attributes API

This is a variant implementation of the changes proposed in #19914.
Unlike that PR, the change in behavior is isolated in its own class.
This is to prevent wonky behavior if a Proc is assigned outside of the
default, and it is a natural place to place the behavior required by #19921
as well.

Close #19914.
