Two changes:
* Add RangeExtensions as a more suitable replacement for legacy
proto.ClearExtensions and proto.ExtensionDescs functions.
* Make HasExtension and GetExtension treat nil message interface
as an empty message to more consistently match legacy behavior.

To assist users in migrating from github.com/golang/protobuf
to google.golang.org/protobuf, make it such that functiionality like
proto.Marshal doesn't panic on nil interfaces.
Similar to how the new implementation treats a typed nil message
as an empty message, we treat a nil interface as being equivalent
to an "untyped" empty message.

TestNil checks for panic behavior for all top-level functions that
accept messages to ensure that we can detect when behavior changes
whether accidentally or deliberately.
This test discovered that the pure protobuf reflect behavior
differs with the fast-path implementation for a few cases.
For the protobuf reflection implementation, we explicitly check
for invalid messages in Merge and Reset. Previously, these would
not panic if the message was already empty (i.e., had no need to
actually set/clear any fields in the receiver message).
