/// and the same core field-type id. Only the generated C++ member type differs
/// (uint8_t instead of uint32_t). [registryType] folds it back into `uint` for
/// registry dispatch (so existing KeyFrameUint keyframes still apply) and for
/// the property field-type id (so existing files remain compatible).
