Error when column name contains . (dot)

$csv-diff --version
csv-diff, version 0.6

Consider the following example, which works correctly:

import csv_diff
from io import StringIO
csv_diff.compare(csv_diff.load_csv(StringIO("id,a,b,c c,d\n0,2,3,4,5"), key="id"),
                 csv_diff.load_csv(StringIO("id,a,b,c c,d\n0,2,4,5,5"), key="id"))

Output:

{'added': [],
 'removed': [],
 'changed': [{'key': '0', 'changes': {'b': ['3', '4'], 'c c': ['4', '5']}}],
 'columns_added': [],
 'columns_removed': []}

If I add a . inside the column name of "c c" -> "c. c" it breaks

import csv_diff
from io import StringIO
csv_diff.compare(csv_diff.load_csv(StringIO("id,a,b,c. c,d\n0,2,3,4,5"), key="id"),
                 csv_diff.load_csv(StringIO("id,a,b,c. c,d\n0,2,4,5,5"), key="id"))

Output:

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

From what I can understand, for some reason when the column name contains ., the field become a list instead of a str (e.g. ["c. c."] instead of "c. c"), and it breaks the construction of the dictionary.

This seems to be weird behavior from dictdiffer. I can work around it.
