Basically, if I have

message Foo {
    int32 x = 1;
    int32 y = 2;
}
message Bar {
    map<int32, Foo> items = 1;
}

And I serialize 2 fragments appended:

items = { 1: { x: 123 } }

and (as the second appended chunk)

items = { 1: { y: 456 } }

And now I deserialize the entire chunk; is the map item with key 1:

- { x: 123, y: 456 }, or
- { y: 456 }, or
- something else

Or to put it another way: are message-based map items merged or strictly
replaced?

My understanding based on the docs is "replaced", so { y: 456 } - but: can
I get a confirmation on this?
