      In SERVER-128714, we added a copy of ceSamplingMetadata to pass into PlanExplainerClassicRuntimePlannerForSBE meaning that there are now 2 instances of the ceSamplingMetadata map - one in PlanExplainerImpl and the other in PlanExplainerClassicRuntimePlannerForSBE.

      This leads to messy code and introduces the possibility of a bug with a silent failure in the future where the ceSamplingMetadata information returned is wrong due to accessing the wrong copy. We should refactor this codepath, e.g. by modifying the responsibilities/structure of PlanExplainerData to make the ownership and passing around of ceSamplingMetadata extremely clear.
