ActionMetadataHandler: proper metadata even for the volatile workspace status This is part of cleaning up the ActionInputFileCache / MetadataHandler split. Both classes generally store and return identical information, except the MetadataHandler lies about constant metadata artifacts. Instead of lying here, update the ActionCacheChecker, which is the only place where we actually want constant metadata. Additionally, remove getMetadataMaybe; again, the only caller that needs special casing is the ActionCacheChecker, so we move the special casing there instead of having it in the MetadataHandler.

Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:
A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.
An emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.
Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
