DataTree.from_dict
now supports indicating the root node with "", ".", "/" or "./".This makes the handling of the root node a bit more consistent with handling of other nested paths. For example, we can use relative paths, which allows for removing special cases for the root from some internal uses of from_dict.
I've also fixed a bug where the
name
argument was sometimes ignored.
