Chat Completions is not returning the metatada

[juninhodeluca]

Confirm this is a Node library issue and not an underlying OpenAI API issue

• This is an issue with the Node library

Describe the bug

Hi, I just noticed the metadata key is not being returned in response object when using the https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions endpoint despite of the current references says at Create chat completion

Not sure if this is the right place to open this issue, but the openai-openapi looks a bit older.
