Title: metadata relocation

This patch introduce the new metadata dir to allow relocation of .registry, .channels, .filemap and .depdb and to be compliant with FHS.

Ex :
* script in /usr/share/pear
* metadata in /var/lib/pear

Note : default value is empty, which means, use same php_dir. This should manage smooth upgrade from previous version, with same configuration file.

This allow avoid to have unwanted stuff in the default include_path.
