Adding support of terms meta to XML-RPC

Description

Since I'd need to do a batch custom taxonomy import (with additional meta terms) via XML-RPC, unfortunately I noticed that it seems that the XML-RPC doesn't allow to handle terms meta as introduced in 4.4.

This patch aims to add the support of terms meta to XML-RPC, specifically for wp.addTerm, wp.getTerms, wp.editTerm and wp.editTerms methods, in same way the API does with post custom fields.

The patch is a starting point and probably has to be revised since it assumes the fine-grained caps for taxonomy terms (see 35614).

Also, the patch add the new has_term_meta() function to taxonomy.php in order to return also meta term IDs that could be needed in subsequent XMP-RPC wp.editTerm calls.

#3 in reply to: ↑ 2 @enrico.sorcinelli

I just submitted an updated patch with unit tests.

Until the fine-grain taxnomony term will be developed/added to the core (see 35614), all the current_user_can() statements in the patch (relative to class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php) are for demonstration purpose only and they can be replaced with current_user_can( 'manage_categories' )

PS: I misspelled the related XML-RPC methods in the initial post, the correct ones are of course: wp.newTerm, wp.getTerm, wp.editTerm, wp.getTerms :-)

Thank you for the updated patch, @enrico.sorcinelli.

I'd like a few more unit tests to cover the editTerm endpoint, which I will add myself. I'll also clean up the formatting.
