This would require refactoring socrata_views_data() to use the Endpoint API.

To get the metadata, the URL is like https://data.seattle.gov/api/views/i5jq-ms7b.json.

Here's a first pass at this. We also have some special case metadata from the old API that we'll want to take a look at.

Here's a better patch with some additional handling of some metadata from the old API, and a little more documentation.

I fixed a few coding standards issues and changed the field help text to be Socrata data field of type %field_type.
