The boltdb instance in metadata is only used for getting transactions
and can also be overriden via the context to have a wider control of the
transaction boundary. Using the transactor interface allows callers of
metadata to have more control of the transaction lifecycle.
Since boltdb must be fsync'ed on commit, operations which perform many
database operations can be costly and slow. While providing transactor
via context can be used to group together operations, it does not
provide a way to manage the commit fsyncs more globally.

Allow the api to stay at the same v1 go package name and keep using a
1.x version number. This indicates the API is still at 1.x and allows
sharing proto types with containerd 1.6 and 1.7 releases.
