Two variables are searched for value of additional package metadata: * PACKAGE_ADD_METADATA_<PKGTYPE> * PACKAGE_ADD_METADATA
First found variable with defined value wins. <PKGTYPE> is a parameter of getter and expected to be a distinct name of specific package type. For example: 'DEB' or 'RPM'. Variable can contain multiple [one-line] metadata fields, separated by literal sequence '\n'. Separator can be redefined through variable flag 'separator'. Getter returns found value with separator replaced with newline character. As side-effect, searched variables acquired flags 'type' (equals to 'list') and 'separator'.
