Description
I have started to see the following error message: "Error: getStepMetadata() can only be called inside a step function". However, it IS being called within a step function and it persists in workflow 4.0.1-beta.29

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported getStepMetadata() error with workflow version 4.0.1-beta.29 and a step function. Trace the call from the getStepMetadata entry point and compare the runtime context when it is invoked; done means identifying why a call inside the step is rejected and covering that behavior with a regression test.
