Idea: *.metadata.json file has "metadataurl" property

ref ternjs/tern#424

I would like to avoid that, the metadata.json should be hosted inside tern plugin and not in an other folder (like today).

You can compare metadata.json to node package.json, it contains the same information (bug, url, etc) but too informations about options of the tern plugin.

That is other issue, let's discuss that in #190

Why you don't like "metadataurl" property?

There is script that can make good use of this #192

I don't want to have a metadata respository.json. I want to have just a repository.json which list tern modules. metadata.json should be hosted in each tern plugin. See #190 (comment)
