`.set("a=1", b=2)` silently ignores kwargs

[NicoWeio]

This happened to me when using db.relate and I guess the same issue exists elsewhere. I would have liked surrealist to either combine the string and the kwargs or raise an exception when trying to use both.

I assumed that if the user uses a string representation, he will no longer use kwargs, but you are right - it can be confusing. I guess "combine the string and the kwargs" will be the best choice here E.g.

# RELATE person:john->wrote->article:best SET title = "title", text = "text";
print(db.relate("person:john->wrote->article:best").set('title = "title"', text="text"))

# RELATE person:john->wrote->article:best SET title = "title", text = "text";
print(db.relate("person:john->wrote->article:best").set(title="title", text="text"))

# RELATE person:john->wrote->article:best SET title = "title", text = "text";
print(db.relate("person:john->wrote->article:best").set('title = "title", text = "text"'))
