fix: Correct the AutogenContext.metadata typing to include Sequence[MetaData].

### Description
The type annotation for AutogenContext.metadata is currently `Optional[MetaData]`, but `target_metadata` is `Union[MetaData, Sequence[MetaData], None]`. Seems like setting `target_metadata` to `[]` directly translates into the list that `AutogenContext` receives, and that the code is already coercing the potential single/sequence to always be a list.

My alembic plugin wasn't aware that this **could** be a list, and as such wasn't handling the possibility properly.
