Remove two unused OutputPage methods

addMetadataLink and getMetadataAttribute were added in 2004 (22f8c4ce)
for functionality that was moved to extensions in 2011 (27c3b22b).
Those extensions, CreateCommonsRdf and DublinCoreRdf, now use
addHeadItem() directly.  There are no other callers in core or
extensions.
