[Feature Request]: make PHPStorm understand custom blade @if @else blocks

[ghbob]

Feature Description

I am not sure if that's in the scope of this plugin but it's rather annoying and a reason not to use Blade custom ifs right now.

With

Blade::if('CustomIf', static fn(string $input): bool => If::customIf($input));

This works great:

@CustomIf('input')

@endCustomIf

but PHPStorm doesn't understand this:

@CustomIf('input')

@else

@endCustomIf

Missing opening directive
Directive is not closed

So there is no correct formatting and it shows errors where there are none.

Laravel does register @elseCustomIf but that's just an else if block not a working else block.
