When writing out the multiruby dexelas example imageseries in hexrdgui after
performing aggregation, I would encounter the following error:
It appears that some of the metadata being saved as HDF5 attributes
was a unicode string. Specifically, for this case, it appears that the
panel_id
key had a unicodeff1
value.Converting to a regular string fixes the issue.
I don't know why the panel ID came out to have a unicode value, but
we can guard against it and convert it into a regular string.
