#' Update Col.Meta Attribute to Match Annotations Object
#'
#' Utility to update a provided `soma_adat` object's column
#' metadata to match the annotations object.
#'
#' Attempts to update the following column metadata in the adat:
#' - SomaId
#' - Target
#' - TargetFullName
#' - UniProt
#' - Type
#' - Organism
#' - EntrezGeneSymbol
#' - EntrezGeneID
#'
#' @param adat A `soma_adat` data object to update attributes.
#' @param anno A `tibble` containing analyte-specific annotations
#'   from `read_annotations()`
#' @return An identical object to `adat` with `Col.Meta` updated
#'   to match those in `anno`.
