Description
would be very handy to have the ability to store metadata about functions
analogous to metadata for topics
https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/12629
advantages (same as for topics):
> Introduce the ability to store metadata about topics.
> This would be very useful as with metadata you could add labels and other
> pieces of information that would allow defining the purpose of a topic,
> custom application-level properties.
> This feature will allow application-level diagnostic tools and maintenance
> tools to not need external databases to store such metadata.
>
> Imagine that we could add a simple key value map (String keys and String
> values) to the topic.
> These metadata could be set during topic creation and also updated.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or function-management entry point; start by reading the linked topic-metadata issue (#12629) and the function APIs. Clarify the metadata shape and creation, update, and retrieval behavior, then add tests that demonstrate the agreed scope.
