Attribute accessors not working when accessor method is one word

[CraigMonva]

• Laravel-mongodb Version: 3.9.0
• PHP Version: 8.1.3
• Database Driver & Version: irrelevant (not a database issue)

Description:

Attribute accessors not working when accessor method is one word when using laravel 9 Attributes convention: https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/eloquent-mutators#defining-an-accessor

From the docs: This method name should correspond to the "camel case" representation of the true underlying model attribute / database column when applicable.

e.g

• first_name attribute should have a firstName method that returns \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Casts\Attribute which is then accessible by $model->first_name
• name attribute should have a name method that returns \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Casts\Attribute which is then accessible by $model->name

When extending laravel-mongodb Model class, If model has an attribute accessor method which is one word. i.e the name example from above, its being treated like a relationship.

I've done some logging and believe this line is the issue: https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb/blob/master/src/Eloquent/Model.php#L158

Potential fix is don't call getRelationValue() if the return type of the method is \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Casts\Attribute like what happens in base laravel model? https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/9.x/src/Illuminate/Database/Eloquent/Concerns/HasAttributes.php#L572

Any progress here? I've came across the same issue. Been investigating this for hours as the cause of the problem was not obvious at all.

Made a simple fix with help of @CraigMonva's hint. Let's hope it'll be reviewed soon.
