Dear Maintainer,

During implementation and tests of new dump action, I've noticed that
while non-textual values in extended attributes were properly stored in
.metadata file, retrieving them from it was simply broken, i.e.
anything beyond first null byte was zeroed.

Small quantum of solace is the fact that apparently metastore users
rarely use extended attributes or at least rarely with non-textual
values, because otherwise they would surely report such crucial bug.
