Uddipta Maity b55e2165be Rocksdb backup can store optional application specific metadata
Summary:
Rocksdb backup engine maintains metadata about backups in separate files. But,
there was no way to add extra application specific data to it. Adding support
for that.
In some use cases, applications decide to restore a backup based on some
metadata. This will help those cases to cheaply decide whether to restore or
not.

Test Plan:
Added a unit test. Existing ones are passing

Sample meta file for BinaryMetadata test-

```
