Zoltan Kochan 2554264fdd perf: use NDJSON format for metadata cache (#11188)
The metadata cache files now use a two-line NDJSON format:
- Line 1: cache headers (etag, modified, cachedAt) ~100 bytes
- Line 2: raw registry metadata JSON (unchanged)

This allows loadMetaHeaders to read only the first 1 KB of the file
to extract conditional-request headers (etag, modified), avoiding
the cost of reading and parsing multi-MB metadata files when the
registry returns 200 and the old metadata would be discarded.

Also moves cache directories to v11/ namespace (v11/metadata,
v11/metadata-full, v11/metadata-full-filtered) since the format
is not backwards compatible.
