Meta-data is not reflected on a saved model (ED 2.3, ED 2.4)

[duizendnegen]

Calling save on a model (this is a PUT operation in this case) doesn't capture the metadata that is returned from the server. Incidentally, this is also true for queryRecord. (Perhaps related: #3918)

payment.save().then((result) => {
   console.log(this.get('payment.meta'));
});

prints undefined.

Using the private method _metadataFor gives the metadata as expected

payment.save().then((result) => {
   console.log(this.get('store')._metadataFor('payment'));
});

prints

{
   error: "Failed charging the card"
}

I believe it is a known issue that meta is not supported on records. See: #2905

@wecc do you mind writing up what needs to happen to allow for meta support on records?

[duizendnegen]

Any update @wecc @bmac, especially considering the workaround doesn't work with 2.4.x anymore?

@duizendnegen There's an RFC from @pangratz at emberjs/rfcs#160 that aims to lay the groundwork for supporting meta and links.

I'm closing this issue since we're tracking JSON API support (including meta for single records) in #2905, feel free to join the discussion there.
