Invoke `load_schema` in `_default_attributes`

Currently `_default_attributes` doesn't work unless `load_schema` is
called before.

The `MissingAttributeError` is caused by `reload_schema_from_cache` is
invoked by `serialize`.

I added `load_schema` in `_default_attributes` to `_default_attributes`
works without any dependency like `attribute_types` etc.

Closes #31905.
