Feature Request: move all .repo-metadata.json into one .repo-metadata-full.json

Rather than distribute hundreds of .repo-metadata.json in each repo, configure a single manifest-style .repo-metadata-full.json file (like go does here). This will have the following benefits:

  • Much fewer files (remove 150+ .repo-metadata.json files)
  • Don't distribute config files in prod packages (right now we have to, for internal/scalability reasons. See #7276)
  • It's simpler to have all this metadata defined in one place
