server: create new memdb table for storing system metadata (#8703) This adds a new very tiny memdb table and corresponding raft operation for updating a very small effective map[string]string collection of "system metadata". This can persistently record a fact about the Consul state machine itself. The first use of this feature will come in a later PR. 2020-10-06 15:08:37 +00:00			`server: create new memdb table for storing system metadata`
