Only load attributes from attribute set of given entity type

[Maikel-Koek]

Description

The eav_entity_attribute table can contain attributes of different entity types (from third parties), next to the catalog_product entity type attributes. These attributes can possibly have the same attribute set IDs as the catalog_product entity attribute set IDs.
This can cause issues when loading the attributes by attribute set for a product.

For example: when switching a product's attribute set to a different attribute set, the following snippet will try to delete the data of the product of the old attribute set:
https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Catalog/Model/ResourceModel/Product.php#L344-L355

This will result in the following error:

Call to a member function getBackendTable() on bool

On: https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.4-develop/app/code/Magento/Catalog/Model/ResourceModel/Product.php#L373:

Manual testing scenarios

1. Create a custom entity type, or install a third party extension which adds custom entity types (like https://mirasvit.com/magento-2-extensions/blog.html, which adds blog_post and blog_category entity types), and make sure you have a product attribute set ID with the same attribute set ID of the custom entity type.
2. Try to switch the attribute set of an existing product, which currently has a product attribute set ID which is the same as one of the custom entity type IDs.
3. When trying to save the product, the following error will appear:
   Call to a member function getBackendTable() on bool

Hi @Maikel-Koek. Thank you for your contribution!
Here are some useful tips on how you can test your changes using Magento test environment.
❗ Automated tests can be triggered manually with an appropriate comment:

• @magento run all tests - run or re-run all required tests against the PR changes
• @magento run <test-build(s)> - run or re-run specific test build(s)
  For example: @magento run Unit Tests

<test-build(s)> is a comma-separated list of build names.

Allowed build names are:

1. Database Compare
2. Functional Tests CE
3. Functional Tests EE
4. Functional Tests B2B
5. Integration Tests
6. Magento Health Index
7. Sample Data Tests CE
8. Sample Data Tests EE
9. Sample Data Tests B2B
10. Static Tests
11. Unit Tests
12. WebAPI Tests
13. Semantic Version Checker

You can find more information about the builds here
ℹ️ Run only required test builds during development. Run all test builds before sending your pull request for review.

@magento run all tests

@magento It looks like tests are failing that have nothing to do with my changes.

The unit test failures do seem related to changes introduced in this PR:

There was 1 error:

1. Magento\Eav\Test\Unit\Model\AttributeManagementTest::testGetAttributes
   Error: Call to a member function load() on null

/var/www/html/app/code/Magento/Eav/Model/AttributeManagement.php:187
/var/www/html/app/code/Magento/Eav/Test/Unit/Model/AttributeManagementTest.php:429

So maybe the unit tests found a bug in this change, or they should be updated. I'll leave that up to you to figure out.
