developer_measure: the promote reads Attribute Name

The promote to detail read a hard-coded "volume", so any other
Attribute Name measured on primitives produced nothing at the detail
level and the primitive attribute was still deleted. It now reads the
Attribute Name, and a switch keeps a point measurement as is instead
of running a primitive promote that finds nothing. Help corrected: the
promotion is to the detail, not to points, and with Accumulate at
Throughout the detail value is the total. Same version.

+- Measure: the Measure SOP; a primitive measurement is promoted to a detail attribute under the chosen name.
 - Metamax
 - Migrate 1.2 (Scalar Migrate, Vector Migrate): pushes an attribute's values along a per-point direction vector, by proximity or connectivity; the sender loses what the target gains.
 - Normalize (Scalar Normalize, Vector Normalize): rescales a float attribute so its values sum to a target, or makes a vector attribute unit length.
