GET /v1/compliance/apps/projects/documents/\{document_id\}/metadata

Returns metadata for a project document, without the content body.

Use the sibling GET /v1/compliance/apps/projects/documents/\{document_id\} endpoint to fetch the document text. The md5 and size_bytes fields here are computed over the UTF-8 encoding of that text, so a DLP consumer can dedupe or match hashes without downloading every document.
