Issue DM-1770: Support DDL in MetaServ - design
DDL information is embedded as comments in the master version of the schema (in "cat" repo). Currently we are only using it for schema browser. This story involves designing the procedure involving loading DDL information into MetaServ. We need to be ready to support a variety of scenarios: * we are getting already preloaded database, need to just load metadata about it to metaserv (we might have the original ascii file with extra information, or not) * we are starting from scratch, need to initialize database (including loading schema), and need to load the information to the metaserv * we already have the database and metadata in metaserv, but we want to change something (eg. alter table, or delete table, or delete database).
