> when using PubsubIO.writeProtos(protoMessage), the PubsubMessage is created 
> in the background and there is no way to specify the attributes of the 
> message.  This makes the method useless if a user wants to then use the 
> withTimestampAttribute() or withIdAttribute() of the writer with anything 
> other than the default timestamp or ID (a common use case).  
> As a workaround the user can manually create the PubsubMessage, but this 
> basically requires duplication of the writeProtos() logic, which is brittle 
> in the case that the encoding logic changes.
