If the nodes info endpoint is going to be pluggable, the NodesInfoRequest class needs to support flexible lists of metrics rather than a fixed group of boolean flags. This PR refactors the NodesInfoRequest class so that its serialization will be capable of carrying such lists.
It does not change the external API of the NodesInfoRequest class. This will be done in a follow-up PR. I want to keep this PR as small as I can in case I have misunderstood anything important about backwards compatibility for the transport protocol.
This PR also adds some granular unit tests that I used to make sure that the class's behavior didn't change.
