This Metadata Agent is supposed to be an extension to the webhook mechanism. On a metadata refresh it fetches the combined metadata and sends it as POST payload to a given webhook.

The output on the webhook looks something like

```
Array
(
    [payload] => {
      "title_sort": "Test", 
      "title": "Test Movie - The final Movie", 
      "root_file": "test_movie", 
      "summary": "I am a dummy summary of a movie", 
      "event": "metadata", 
      "ext": ".mp4", 
      "provider": "com.plexapp.agents.argustv", 
      "guid": "com.plexapp.agents.none://97c3089b8de993085107dd53c39de81df32a46ea?lang=xn", 
      "id": "565957"
   }    
)

```
