What is the problem?

The pipeline is adding AWS::CDK::Metadata resource to the support stacks regardless of the versionReporting value and even if the synth command is cdk --no-version-reporting synth.

Reproduction Steps

1. Have "versionReporting": false in cdk.json
2. Alternatively, specify the synth command as cdk --no-version-reporting synth in the Synth step
3. Deploy the pipeline. Verify that the support stacks do not have the AWS::CDK::Metadata resource.
4. Wait for the pipeline to self-mutate the first time

What did you expect to happen?

No changes to the support stacks.

What actually happened?

The self-mutate action adds the AWS::CDK::Metadata to the support stacks.

If I do a cdk deploy from my local machine again, the resource will be deleted.
