Summary
Why
This is Phase 3 of the metadata transaction-duration plan. It makes metadata call-site intent explicit before a later behavioral PR changes metadata transaction ownership. This PR does not shorten metadata transaction lifetime by itself; GetConnection still creates the metadata connection and begins its transaction.
Verification
Note: test/sql/metadata/postgres_metadata_passthrough.test was skipped locally because this build does not have postgres_scanner available.
