\DocumentMetadata{} will load (allmost) all the new code from
latex-lab but not activate tagging. This means new features (like a
new list implementation etc) but means also various
incompatibilities if packages or classes clash with the new code. 

\DocumentMetadata{tagging=on} will load all the new code and
activate tagging.

Typically (with lualatex + unicode-math) you will then also want to
activate mathml structure elements:

\DocumentMetadata{tagging=on,tagging-setup={math/setup=mathml-SE}}

If you do not want the new code but want the PDF management then, as
David wrote, you can load it with \RequirePackage{pdfmanagement}.
