Description

With the added support for google.api.api_version, an optional annotation, the generator needs to emit code that sets this (when specified) in the generated metadata decorator. It currently sets it as part of *Metadata::SetMetadata, but this might not be the best place. One option would be to pass this value to the metadata helper functions as another parameter, similar to `api_client_header`. another option would be to create a collection of known at compile time metadata pairs and pass that to the metadata helper function.
