implement metadata checks for downscaling

[martinschorb]

type checks to fix
mobie/mobie-utils-python#135

and sanity checks to validate the written result's metadata is consistent with the input parameters.

So far supports only OME-Zarr.

Do we need these checks for N5 as well?

Thanks !!!

I don't think so. Let's focus on ome.zarr, I hope we will be able to move away from n5 more and more...

Another question: do you think we should make a release for this? I would say this is quite important, since wrong resolution metadata will result in a lot of viewer problems.

I don't know your previous strategy and criteria for releases here, but my gut feeling would be to make one.

I went ahead with the release.
