Return directory listing with full metadata #92

Closed josephmturner closed 10 months ago

This PR adds the option to receive the raw node data from hyperdrive by passing the header Accept: application/json; metadata=full. Media type parameters are described here.

Note that directories (entry prefixes) lack seq and value properties.

This change would simplify the frontend logic in hyperdrive.el for displaying directory contents.

To avoid adding hyperdrive-specific code, let's consider more general options for directory listings with metadata in #73.
