> Add back support for copying over extra metadata from previous commit .
> We had a config named 'hoodie.write.meta.key.prefixes'. when this config is 
> added, hudi copies over any extra metadata from previous commit with matching 
> key prefixes as per `hoodie.write.meta.key.prefixes`. for eg: if 
> `hoodie.write.meta.key.prefixes` set to `abc` and if there are other config 
> options as "abc.key1" and "abc.key2", these two will be copied over from 
> previous commit metadata and get overridden with current writer's commit 
> metadata. 
>  
> Our initial understanding is that this was added to support copying over 
> delta streamer checkpoint for multi -writer scenairo. But since the config is 
> not very straight forward to use, we simplified and introduced a new config 
> as per [https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/3820.] 
> Added the old one "hoodie.write.meta.key.prefixes" as an alternative. Since 
> multi-writer in itself is still evolving, we felt simplifying the config for 
> deltastreamer checkpoint makes sense. 
> But if someone out there was using the older config to copy some other extra 
> metadata for debugging or some other purposes, we need to add the support 
> back.
