Setting a group or root attribute twice wrote two attribute messages with
the same name, and h5py read back the first value: set_attr("w", 1) then
set_attr("w", "two") read as 1. The later value now replaces the earlier
one, as `attrs[name] = v` does in h5py, including when a group is merged
from two builders.
