Allow prepopulated metadata to be empty

Robert Speicher requested to merge rs-empty-metadata into master

What does this MR do?

Today we had two coordinated pipelines run simultaneously due to an issue with our runner manager.

As a result, we tagged a coordinator pipeline but never wrote metadata, so on our next run we fetched the previous tag, tried to prepopulate metadata from it, and came up empty, throwing a NoMethodError.

This works around this scenario by allowing metadata to be empty.
