      wt utility replaces the passed command config if we pass -m.

      In the util_main.c we use the same cmd_config variable to store the input of -C and -m options, this leads to overwrite the option value with the last parsed one.

              case 'C': /* wiredtiger_open config */
            cmd_config = __wt_optarg;
            break;

        case 'm': /* verify metadata on connection open */
            cmd_config = "verify_metadata=true";
            meta_verify = true;
            break;

      haribabu.kommi@mongodb.com's suggestion: fix the metadata option -m to use metadata_config instead of cmd_config and adjust the code necessarily.
