Description

If a function in the orchestrator receives a Z22 and then returns another Z22, it should not discard the metadata associated with the received Z22. Instead, it should intelligently merge that metadata with any metadata that will be produced in the current function.

Desired behavior/Acceptance criteria (returned value, expected error, performance expectations, etc.)

ensure that metadata is always merged instead of being discarded

To add to this; a specific example of why this will be helpful can be seen when we are testing out an implementation of a function. E.g. https://www.wikifunctions.org/view/en/Z13453, we click on 'details', we do not see which implementations were run to gather test results; when for this function there is both a JS and Py implementation. As a user, I would want to know which implementation(s) was used
