The function importer was still materializing metadata when modules were
loaded for function importing. We only want to materialize it when we
are going to invoke the metadata linking postpass. Materializing it
before function importing is not only unnecessary, but also causes
metadata referenced by imported functions to be mapped in early, and
then not connected to the rest of the module level metadata when it is
ultimately linked in.
Augmented the test case to specifically check for the metadata being
properly connected, which it wasn't before this fix.

Summary:
Second patch split out from http://reviews.llvm.org/D14752.
Maps metadata as a post-pass from each module when importing complete,
suturing up final metadata to the temporary metadata left on the
imported instructions.
This entails saving the mapping from bitcode value id to temporary
metadata in the importing pass, and from bitcode value id to final
metadata during the metadata linking postpass.
Depends on D14825.
