feat: added element metadata to unstructured loader (#1068)

### Summary

Adds tracked metadata from `unstructured` elements to the document
metadata when `UnstructuredFileLoader` is used in `"elements"` mode.
Tracked metadata is available in `unstructured>=0.4.9`, but the code is
written for backward compatibility with older `unstructured` versions.

### Testing

Before running, make sure to upgrade to `unstructured==0.4.9`. In the
code snippet below, you should see `page_number`, `filename`, and
`category` in the metadata for each document. `doc[0]` should have
`page_number: 1` and `doc[-1]` should have `page_number: 2`. The example
document is `layout-parser-paper-fast.pdf` from the [`unstructured`
sample
docs](https://github.com/Unstructured-IO/unstructured/tree/main/example-docs).

```python
from langchain.document_loaders import UnstructuredFileLoader
loader = UnstructuredFileLoader(file_path=f"layout-parser-paper-fast.pdf", mode="elements")
docs = loader.load()
```
