No need to define and write attributes on all ranks for ADIOS IO type #535

Closed dqwu closed 11 months ago

This patch is provided by @tkurc (Tahsin Kurc), which is required for an ultra-high resolution scream IO benchmark test run with 8K nodes on Frontier using ADIOS IO type to pass.

For ADIOS IO type, there is no need to define the same attributes on all ranks, which might greatly increase the attribute metadata size and cause ADIOS lib to throw an exception when trying to gathering more than 2^31 elements.
