This PR specifies a new management canister endpoint
canister_metadataproviding canister metadata (contained in custom sections). So far canister metadata are only available to external users via the (certified) state tree (by making a read state HTTP request). The new management canister endpoint makes canister metadata available to other canisters, too.
