Summary

As is known, when there is an assigner node inside an iteration node and the iteration runs in parallel, the final value produced by the assigner is nondeterministic. It will be overwritten by the loop that finishes last.

However, if the assigner is executed only once, the final value should be deterministic.

Currently, before each loop execution, the parent variable pool is copied into the loop context. After the loop finishes, all values from the loop are written back to the parent variable pool, even if the loop did not perform any assignment operations.

This PR tracks the keys that are actually updated within each loop and replaces only those values in the parent variable pool that were truly modified.
