Review Comment:
   food for thought : I think this should prevent any MDT partitions from being 
initialized, not just `files`

Review Comment:
   We can mark this advanced. (@yihua to confirm) . 
   
   On naming : just `hoodie.metadata.bootstrap.disabled` or 
`hoodie.metadata.auto.initialize` = true (default)| false?
   Thats the best I can think of.
