schema-salad-doc produces duplicated attribute entry when inheriting from parent
Ref: https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwl-v1.2/pull/166#issuecomment-1164571015

The latest release of `schema-salad` allows for overriding the documentation of a parent type in a child type. i.e.

```yaml
- name: Parent
  doc: |
    Parent record
  documentRoot: true
  docChild:
    - "#Child"
  type: record
  fields:
    - name: id
      jsonldPredicate:
        _id: "#id"
      type: int
      doc: Parent ID

- name: Child
  doc: |
    Child record
  type: record
  extends: Parent
  fields:
    - name: id
      jsonldPredicate:
        _id: "#id"
      type: int
      doc: Child ID
```

Note the `id` field has a different `doc` value in the child type. However, running this schema through `schema-salad`, it prints the `id` field twice in the child.
