jupyterlab-myst extension causes issues problems with viewing the notebook in the browser

[MatusGasparik]

Description

I worked on a notebook yersterday and today I noticed that large chunks of it (basically everything except for the top cell with some imports) was misteriously missing. But the notebook file is big, cat-ing it relealed that the content is there, it just want show in the browser for some reason.

I checked the browser console and saw something related to this extension:

So I tried deactivating the extension in the left-panel and refreshing and voilà - the notebook contenst magically appeared:

Thank you for the bug report! Would you be able to share the notebook that causes this?

Thanks @MatusGasparik for the bug report. @agoose77 it could potentially be this line:
https://github.com/executablebooks/jupyterlab-myst/blob/dedbb1d785a02612da05fa798c7091c25b607a59/src/metadata.ts#L13

Do you know by chance when getMetadata was introduced, perhaps later than JupyterLab 4.0.0?

Actually, @MatusGasparik please upgrade to v2.0.0 of the jupyterlab-myst library, the previous one was not compatible with JupyterLab 4.0!

@rowanc1 good eyes. I misread the version as 2.0, this makes much more sense.
