/**
Update or set specific paths of an attribute set.
Takes a list of updates to apply and an attribute set to apply them to,
and returns the attribute set with the updates applied. Updates are
represented as `{ path = ...; update = ...; }` values, where `path` is a
list of strings representing the attribute path that should be updated,
and `update` is a function that takes the old value at that attribute path
as an argument and returns the new
value it should be.
Properties:
- Updates to deeper attribute paths are applied before updates to more
shallow attribute paths
- Multiple updates to the same attribute path are applied in the order
they appear in the update list
- If any but the last `path` element leads into a value that is not an
attribute set, an error is thrown
- If there is an update for an attribute path that doesn't exist,
accessing the argument in the update function causes an error, but
intermediate attribute sets are implicitly created as needed
