Check metadata hash (#776)

* Activate metadata-hash feature in kitchensink-runtime to see if we can reproduce the signing issues

* Test with a newer docker image

* Test a docker image that should still work

* Implement empty hash and deactivate metadata hash check

* Fix failing build.
- Deactivate two tests for now

* Cleanup/Remove old changes

* Introduce feature to disable the metadata-hash-check

* Fix conditional compilation

* - Disable tests when the metadata-hash-check feature is active
- Add feature to the main Cargo.toml

* Test with newer docker image

* Add feature to testing code

* Make taplo fmt happy

* Activate the metadata-hash feature per default in testing code

* Use H256 instead of byte array

* Make clippy happy by adding more clutter to the code :-(
