but this concept doesn't exist in notebook, thus the ipynb extension stores this special data in cell metadata. Our attachment cleanup tool will listen to content changes and make sure the attachment stored in the cell metadata is cleared/restored when attachment links in cell content changed.However this doesn't work well in diff editor, when users try to revert attachment link change in cell content, the diff editor is not aware that we need to restore some of the metadata properties. This PR is an attempt to allow serializers to mark which metadata properties are related to cell content and should be restored when cell content is being modified in the diff editor.
The long term solution might be that we delegate the diffing work to serializers, serializers can build up mappings between attachment link, attachment data and cell diffs, so it can listen to cell content changes in modified editor and restore cell metadata from the original document properly.
