Description

Currently, setAttribute is used to set the operator attributes. Other 2 Attribute setting APIs are specific to input ports (setInputPortAttributes) and output ports (setOutputPortsAttributes).

Proposal is to have SetOperatorAttribute api, which will clearly indicate that user wants set attributes on the operator.
( setOperatorAttribute(Operator operator, Attribute<T> key, T value) )

Following will be the roles for the APIs
setAttributes --> for setting Attributes for the whole DAG ( setAttribute(Operator operator, Attribute<T> key, T value) - can be deprecated )
setOperatorAttributes --> for setting Attributes for the operator

All the unit test cases using the previous API will be renamed as a part of this change.
