Research direction
Look at how affordances are defined and exposed in the codebase, likely in modules related to Thing Description generation and HTTP route registration. Examine the affordance class definitions and the serialization logic to understand where visibility could be controlled. A good starting point is to search for 'affordance' or 'ThingDescription' in the source. The change will involve modifying the affordance metadata handling and the API description endpoints to filter based on a new attribute or naming convention like a leading underscore.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Sometimes we want some features of LabThings affordances (like observability, or saving settings) but we don't want the affordance to be exposed or described over HTTP.
Describe the solution you'd like
A simple, clear way to hide e.g. properties from the Thing Description and HTTP API.
This might be as simple as "anything with a leading underscore is hidden", or might be an additonal argument.
