Sync Metadata from GeoNode Layer to Geoserver

[saxas13]

The Metadata in GeoNode is easily maintainable by dedicated users, while the metadata for the same layer in geoserver will keep it's original state.

Whenever an "update layers" command is performed, the metadata fields identical between GeoNode and Geoserver will be reset and filled with the information from Geoserver.

To prevent this behaviour and to additionally be able to maintain the Geoserver layer metadata, we developed a little python script for Geonode-project (v4.1.x) and GeoNode Docker 3.3.x which will update Title; Abstract and Keywords according to the entries from GeoNode.

Both scripts still need some testing but maybe can be helpfull to you as well.

Please, if you find any issues, please let us know, so we can improve them.

Interesting. May be interesting to migrate them to a management command and package these in a contrib module.
