searchidxshard: ensure we set indexlevel on shard[0]

For sharded v2 repositories with few-enough messages, it is
possible for shard[0] to go unused and never trigger the
->commit_txn_lazy to set the indexlevel field in Xapian
metadata.

So set it immediately at initialization and avoid this case.
While we're at it, avoid triggering needless pwrite syscalls
from ->set_metadata by checking with ->get_metadata, first.
