[x3d-public] improved definitions for metadata

[John Carlson]

I will have to see how /metadata/ field is rendered in XML or JSON to
provide adequate feedback.   I understand the use of /metadata/ field for
MetadataSet, but having /metadata/ field for Metadata* beyond MetadataSet
doesn’t make sense to me.  It would make sense if Metadata* inherits from
MetadataSet, but they don’t.   In other words, a MetadataFloat containing a
MetadataSet looks valid???

I will have to dig more into the standards other sections to give informed
feedback.
