First round of ClusterMetadata improvements:
    Introduced a PartitionId type for identifying partitions
    Introduced a admin service for making metadata updates
    Update cluster.json format to specify all partitions (including p0) and changed partitionId to be an int.

Change-Id: Ia0617f1ed0ce886680dcee4f5396a4bbdfa225da
