Remove MetadataWrapper class

[sechkova]

I find it a bit paradox that MetadataWrapper is another container on top of Metadata, adding another level of nesting, when most of the methods/properties are actually shortcuts to attributes contained somewhere in Metadata. If we want a client-variant of Metadata, I'd maybe use inheritance instead of composition. 🤷

But maybe we don't even need it. Let's quickly go through the individual methods/properties of here:

On MetadataWrapper:

• from_json_file -> available as Metadata.from_file with json as default (Move metadata class model de/serialization to sub-package #1279)
• from_json_object -> could be a format-agnostic method on Metadata just like from_file. Implement from_object/from_string method in Metadata class #1336
• persist -> available as Metadata.to_file with json as default (Move metadata class model de/serialization to sub-package #1279)
• expires -> could be a method on Signed, I'd call it 'is_expired' Add 'expired' method to Signed class #1305
• verify -> This is definitely needed for the repository tool as well. So it should be somewhere where both client and repository tool can access it. Maybe even on Metadata in addition to the vanilla one-signature verify we currently have. See A simple, per-file metadata CRUD API #1060 (comment) for thoughts about that distinction. Implement verification by a threshold of keys  #1306

All the other methods here are either pure shortcuts or filters of attributes contained in Metadata objects (or contained objects).

• Re shortcuts: https://github.com/theupdateframework/tuf/pull/1060/files#r452906629 has arguments against shortcuts.
• Re filters: Maybe it will become easier to access individual properties once we have classes for all complex attributes as planned in Add classes for complex metadata fields #1139? But similarly to the arguments against shortcuts, I'd be careful when implementing behavior that relates to contained classes on container classes.

Steps that I suggest should be followed for completing this issue:

• Implement from_object method in Metadata class Implement from_object/from_string method in Metadata class #1336
• Implement 'expired' method in Signed class Add 'expired' method to Signed class #1305
• Implement verification by a threshold of keys Implement verification by a threshold of keys  #1306
• Replace calls to MetadataWrapper.from_json_file with the available Metadata.from_file
• Replace calls to MetadataWrapper.from_json_object with the newly implemented Metadata.from_object
• Replace calls to MetadataWrapper.persist with the available Metadata.to_file
• Replace calls to MetadataWrapper.expires with the newly implemented 'expired'
• Replace calls to MetadataWrapper.verify with the newly implemented verification
• Remove shortcuts and filters (see the issue description)
• Remove the MetadataWrapper class itself

All the steps above will be completed withe the merge of #1355 and #1396.

Done with #1355 and #1396.
