Type Handler registry collision warnings

[varunagrawal]

When importing the orbax checkpointer, our scripts throw warnings as below:

WARNING:absl:Type handler registry overriding type "<class 'float'>" collision on scalar
WARNING:absl:Type handler registry overriding type "<class 'bytes'>" collision on scalar
WARNING:absl:Type handler registry overriding type "<class 'numpy.number'>" collision on scalar

Since these are warnings I don't think there is anything particularly bad that needs remedying but we would like to remove the warnings for our logging.

A MRE is given below:

from orbax import checkpoint as ocp

print("Testing the OCP warnings")

Is this an issue with how the global type registry is set up? Thanks in advance.
