Filelist repo metadata is required when using newer versions of libdnf with old repositories or packages that specify dependencies on files. For example, depsolving with RHEL 9.3 repos on Fedora 40 fails to resolve platform-python with the message nothing provides /usr/libexec/platform-python needed by platform-python-... Not loading filelists is beneficial because it greatly reduces the size of the metadata to download. Filelists were downloaded by default for repositories in the past, but with newer versions of dnf/libdnf (in Fedora 40), they are downloaded on-demand (e.g. when running a query that requires file information). Newer package guidelines prohibit depending on file paths, so filelists are not needed for package depsolving with newer distro repositories. Add an 'optional-metadata' property to the 'arguments' object of the depsolve request, so that callers can enable any optional metadata they need.
