I would not worry about this for now. While the AppStream metainfo
file is recommended, it is not required. Valid metadata are
automatically generated from the desktop file (and other package data)
if the metainfo is not present.
(And there is no point in adding it now in my opinion since it needs
to be in the same package as the desktop file anyway).
Agreed.
Appstream metadata is a distro agnostic format, that upstream can use if
they wish.
Its absence is not a Debian packaging issue.
IMHO its ridiculous for its absence to be a Lintian warming. Maybe a
pedantic (if at all).
