Description
### Feature Description
**What the feature achieves:**
Streaming writes to metadata table using the same RDD chain as data table writes.
https://github.com/apache/hudi/issues/17102
**Why this feature is needed:**
This will give hudi a powerful streaming semantics for collecting stats and writing to metadata table.
### User Experience
**How users will use this feature:**
This will be more of a performance change and not really user accessible one.
- Configuration changes needed
- API changes
- Usage examples
### Hudi RFC Requirements
**RFC PR link:** (if applicable)
**Why RFC is/isn't needed:**
- Does this change public interfaces/APIs? (Yes/No)
- Does this change storage format? (Yes/No)

Research direction
Start by reading the linked issue #17102 and tracing how the existing RDD chain writes the data table. The work is complete when metadata-table statistics can be collected and written using equivalent streaming semantics, with any required configuration, API, usage, storage-format, and RFC decisions documented.
