Public bug reported:

Current approach of loading metadata definitions to database does not
use transactions. Instead it inserts data to database without
transactions so if something fails inside a single file, e.g. inserting
properties, then user has to manually remove all related data from
database, repair the json file and call 'db load_metadefs' again.

To prevent such scenario db load_metadefs should use transactions, so if
something fails then user won't care about consistency of the data in
database. Also to keep consistency in data seeding script all methods
should be rewritten to use sessions instead of engines.
