updating a table captures too many keys #556

Description

@dimbleby
#!/usr/bin/env python3

import tomlkit

doc = tomlkit.loads("a.b = 1\na.c = 2\na.d = 3\n")
doc["a"]["b"] = {"x": 9}

output = tomlkit.dumps(doc)

print(output)

result

[a.b]
x = 9
a.c = 2
a.d = 3

in which a.c and a.d have become children of the [a.b] table

similar to #542, #543, but not fixed by PRs currently open for those so should be distinct.
