[ExtendScript] Set character and paragraph attributes without being ignored

[sttk3]

The setAttribute function in this script addresses an issue where specified text attributes are ignored when their values match the default values of the applied character or paragraph styles.

• Trouble assigning TextFrame to Justification.Left
• Apply Character direction to textframe characters via Extendscript
• Removing underline not working in Illustrator using Extendscript
• "All Caps" option turn "ON" by default when (Java)scripting a textfield… Why? How to avoid?

Since writing workaround scripts every time someone ran into this issue became tedious, I created this as a more generalized solution that reliably applies all text attributes.

Just sharing it in case it's useful to others.

Thanks so much @sttk3. I will keep a bookmark of this!
