[I] [Bug] Performance improvement opportunity in caching parsed message metadata [pulsar]

lhotari opened a new issue, #24644:
URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/24644

   ### Search before reporting
   
   - [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues) and found nothing similar.
   
   
   ### Read release policy
   
   - [x] I understand that [unsupported versions](https://pulsar.apache.org/contribute/release-policy/#supported-versions) don't get bug fixes. I will attempt to reproduce the issue on a supported version of Pulsar client and Pulsar broker.
   
   
   ### User environment
   
   master branch version of Pulsar, 34f8657
   
   
   ### Issue Description
   
   There's a opportunity to significantly reduce memory allocations in Pulsar by caching parsed message metadata. In a simple profiling test case in https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/24623 I noticed that 
   there's a lot of allocations coming from `org.apache.pulsar.common.protocol.Commands.peekAndCopyMessageMetadata`.

   The broker cache can be modified to support caching the message metadata together with the entries so that unnecessary parsing and allocations can be avoided.
   
   ### Error messages
   
   ```text
   
   ```
   
   ### Reproducing the issue
   
   With https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/24623 changes, enabling the `BrokerEntryCacheMultiBrokerTest.testTailingReadsRollingRestart` test
   by modifying the `@Test(enabled = false)` annotation to `@Test(invocationCount = 5)` and then running
   
   ```shell
   mvn -PtestAsyncProfiler test -pl pulsar-broker -Dtest=BrokerEntryCacheMultiBrokerTest
   ```
   
   ### Additional information
   
   _No response_
   
   ### Are you willing to submit a PR?
   
   - [x] I'm willing to submit a PR!
