Passing parameters to Faker

Description

I would like the ability to set/get Faker parameters for example by calling Faker.AddParameter(string, object) and Faker.GetParameter(string, object) so that it can be used in Faker.RuleFor() and Faker.Rules().

An example on how to do this was provided in https://github.com/bchavez/Bogus/issues/460#issuecomment-1409712488 using extension methods and it would be awesome if the extension methods were officially implemented in the library as a builtin feature.
