[DOCS] Replace `_meta` with `metadata` for snapshot APIs. (#44596)

elastic/elasticsearch#41281 added custom metadata parameter to
snapshots. During review, the parameter name was changed from '_meta' to
'metadata,' but the documentation wasn't updated. This corrects the
documentation to use the 'metadata' name.
