Add a new annotation to control type lowering behavior for internal signals
within a module, separate from the port convention. This allows more fine-grained
control over how aggregate types are handled inside modules.
The new annotation works similarly to ConventionAnnotation but applies to
internal signals rather than module ports. It supports the same conventions
and includes an 'includeHierarchy' option to apply the setting to all
modules in the hierarchy.
