I only realize this now, but the changes introduced in #197 mean that old podio root files can no longer be read.

This relates to the metadata discussion #86 but in this case concerns a change in how podio stores metadata on disk.
I think in this case it is worth to try to do some gymnastics to keep the backwards incompatibility - breaking existing data is even more to be avoided than breaking user interfaces.
