 * Create `schema` element in the `register_meta()` options array, which is
 a full schema definition of the meta field. Drop `description` and `type`
 as both of these should be expressed in the schema.
 * Make `register_meta()` return true or WP_Error, bubbling up errors from
 `WP_Meta_Manager->register()`.
 * Make the registry work for taxonomies, comments and users.
