Metadata is no longer written ahead of all nodes. Instead, metadata for
each node is written in the same context as the node itself (into a separate
buffer). This allows metadata to contain (serialize) arbitrary nodes
(for example, arbitrary DartTypes) and use serialization context of parent
nodes (such as declared type parameters).
However, with this change metadata looses the ability to reference
arbitrary AST nodes. This ability was overly restricted and had no
practical uses. (It was not possible to reference nodes which are not
reachable from root Component. As a consequence, it was not possible to
write references to arbitrary DartTypes.)
This change aligns the serialization capabilities of metadata with
how kernel AST nodes are serialized.

Since 'DartType's overload equality with a structural comparison, we cannot
store metadata for them in a 'Map', as is done for 'TreeNode's. Since there is
no use-case yet for storing metadata on types, we remove this ability and the
restrict the metadata test.

This separates compiling platform.dill files from the patch_sdk.dart
script. The motivation for that is that I'm working on reading patch
files directly from Fasta, so we can completely remove the build step
for generating patched_sdk and dart2js_patched_sdk.
Short-term this should allow Paul to add a strong-mode version of
platform.dill without causing to many conflicts with my work on
patches.

This section contains a linear mapping between offsets of serialized nodes
and associated opaque binary metadata.
Note: this CL does not yet update C++ reader and only implements metadata in Kernel package.
C++ implementation will be updated if we agree that format seems flexible enough.
