Catch attribute modification off the main thread.

[mbax]

The clear() call in refreshDirtyAttributes can lead to server crashes if called asynchronously. This async catcher addition should highlight which plugins cause the trouble.

Untested (due to not knowing what plugins cause the issue), but seems to be the only place that this could be getting triggered. Using this PR for publish-pr to attempt helping users, to see if it works out!

I don't think this would be the correct place to add this, the root cause would be plugins interacting with AttributeInstance concurrently, resulting in setDirty being called & mutating attributesToUpdate, or (more unlikely) directly interacting with that set themselves. This method just happens to be where the server trips into it and ends up causing this untraceable error.

[mbax]

My assumptions in writing this (I'm curious which are wrong):

• The exception being fixed only happens when the collection has lost items.
• The attributesToUpdate only loses items through the clear() call in this method.
