Set the meta data of an experiment

Set meta data values for the experiment, like the experiment type ("glycomics" or "glycoproteomics"), or the glycan type ("N", "O", "O-GalNAc", "O-Man", "O-Fuc", "O-GlcNAc", "O-Glc", "HMO", "GSL", "GAG", or "GPI").

This legacy API is retained temporarily for compatibility. Use GlycomicSE() or GlycoproteomicSE() as the default data container.
