Get Metadata

Using BEP0009 and BEEP0010, it should be possible to request the metadata for a given hash from a Torrent Client which supports the extension.

It would be especially interesting if this works for private torrents...

Would be useful to dump the supported extension messages, e.g. (from Wireshark):

FYI: Seems client support for sending ut_metadata over a handshake for Private Torrents is arbitrary. See: bittorrent/bittorrent.org#71
