Issue:
`metadata_update()` duplicates metrics when updating a single field from `None`
### Describe the bug

When updating evaluation metadata with the `metadata_update()` function, it seems that updating a field value from `None` to some other value results in the metrics being duplicated. 

See [this Hub PR](https://huggingface.co/autoevaluate/binary-classification/discussions/75/files) for an example, where I've simply changed the value of `verify_token` from `None` to `1234`. One sees that e.g. `accuracy` is duplicated to include a new "evaluation" element where the `verify_token` field is not `None`.

Intuitively, I would expect that updating an attribute of `EvalResult` would simply update in-place.

### Reproduction

Here's the code snippet the produced the above PR (feel free to run it without fear :)):

```python
from huggingface_hub import model_info, metadata_update
from huggingface_hub.repocard_data import model_index_to_eval_results, eval_results_to_model_index

model_id = "autoevaluate/binary-classification"
metadata = model_info(model_id)
model_index = metadata.cardData["model-index"]
_, eval_results = model_index_to_eval_results(model_index)

# Change verify_token from `None` to dummy value
for eval_result in eval_results:
    if eval_result.verified is True:
        eval_result.verify_token = "1234"
        
new_metadata = {"model-index": eval_results_to_model_index(model_id, eval_results)}        
metadata_update(model_id, metadata=new_metadata, overwrite=True, create_pr=True, commit_message="Test update")
```
