[CLI] mcap list metadata doesn't show the metadata table with huge amount of data in a single entry

[aneuwald-ctw]

Description

• Version: v0.0.46 (CLI)
• Platform: macOS

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have a mcap without metadata
2. Run mcap list metadata your_file.mcap
3. See a empty table of metadata.
4. Create and give execution permission to this script (or do your own):

#!/bin/bash

# Function to generate the key-value pairs
generate_key_value_pairs() {
  local n=$1
  local pairs=""
  for ((i=1; i<=n; i++)); do
    if [[ $i -eq $n ]]; then
      pairs+="key$i=value$i"
    else
      pairs+="key$i=value$i,"
    fi
  done
  echo $pairs
}

# Check if the correct number of arguments is provided
if [ "$#" -ne 2 ]; then
  echo "Usage: $0 N file.mcap"
  exit 1
fi

# Number of key-value pairs and the file
N=$1
METADATA_NAME=$2
FILE=$3

# Generate the key-value pairs
KEY_VALUE_PAIRS=$(generate_key_value_pairs $N)

# Construct and run the command
COMMAND="mcap add metadata -k \"$KEY_VALUE_PAIRS\" -n $METADATA_NAME $FILE"
echo "Running command: $COMMAND"
eval $COMMAND

5. Run it like: ./script.sh 10000 name_of_metadata your_file.mcap

6. Run mcap list metadata your_file.mcap

It doesn't show nothing:

Expected Behavior

It was expected it shows the table with the metadata, at least it could trim it and show only a part of it.

Running mcap get metadata -n name_of_metadata your_file.mcapor mcap get metadata -n name_of_metadata your_file.mcap | wc -l shows that it really added, but the mcap list metadata shows nothing.
