The repositories API didn't allow any access to the extra_data field,
either reading from the field or setting values in the field. This made
it difficult to look up important settings that might affect a client,
or to set any custom values.

This change exposes the field to the caller, allowing them to see all
the settings (custom and tied to a SCMTool/hosting service), and to
modify it using standard means (directly setting fields or using JSON
Patches or Merge Patches).

All unit tests pass.

Tested by a customer who was building an integration that needed this.
Verified on their end that the fields in extra_data could be safely
manipulated.
