Proprietary schemas using native zod methods and Metadata

[RobinTail]

I was dreaming about it.
Unfortunately zod does not provide any way to make a custom or branded or third-party schema that can be identified as one programmatically. Developer of zod also does not want to make any method to store metadata in schemas, instead, recommends to wrap schemas in some other structures, which is not suitable for the purposes of express-zod-api. There are many small inconvenient things in making custom schema classes, that I'd like to replace into native methods, and use withMeta wrapper for storing proprietary identifier, so the generators and walkers could still handle it.
