This allows a problem author to set html attributes when creating an essay answer box.
The motivation for this was a request from an instructor to limit the length of student essay answers, which can now be accomplished by setting the
maxlengthattribute.The attributes hash is inserted before any hard-coded attributes so that the problem author can't override any of these.
