Research direction
Start by locating the Stream classes and their update methods in the streamz repository, then reproduce the issue with a custom Stream subclass whose update method lacks a metadata keyword argument. Trace how the 0.5.3 change reaches custom subclasses and check the project’s release-versioning guidance. Done means the compatibility impact is addressed or the breaking change is correctly represented in the release plan.

Description
I have a few projects that require ~=0.5.0 of streamz. Today I got upgraded to 0.5.3 and found that it is aggressively not backwards compatible as this new version assumes that the update method on all Stream classes takes a metadata kwarg. We define quite a few custom subclasses of Stream, so this was quite a nasty issue to run into. A breaking change like this should be released as 0.6.0 to avoid these problems.
