Change protoiface.ExtensionDescV1 to implement protoreflect.ExtensionType.
ExtensionDescV1's Name field conflicts with the Descriptor Name method,
so change the protoreflect.{Message,Enum,Extension}Type types to no
longer implement the corresponding Descriptor interface. This also leads
to a clearer distinction between the two types.
Introduce a protoreflect.ExtensionTypeDescriptor type which bridges
between ExtensionType and ExtensionDescriptor.
Add extension accessor functions to the proto package:
proto.{Has,Clear,Get,Set}Extension. These functions take a
protoreflect.ExtensionType parameter, which allows writing the
same function call using either the old or new API:
proto.GetExtension(message, somepb.E_ExtensionFoo)

We occasionally need to work with immutable, empty lists, maps, and
messages. Notably, Message.Get on an empty repeated field will return a
"frozen" empty value.
Move handling of these immutable, zero-length composites into Converter,
to unify the behavior of regular and extension fields.
Add a Zero method to Converter, MessageType, and ExtensionType, to
provide a consistent way to get an empty, frozen value of a composite
type. Adding this method to the public {Message,Extension}Type
interfaces does increase our API surface, but lets us (for example)
cleanly represent an empty map as a nil map rather than a non-nil
one wrapped in a frozenMap type.
Drop the frozen{List,Map,Message} types as no longer necessary.
(These types did have support for creating a read-only view of a
non-empty value, but we are not currently using that feature.)

A Converter converts between reflect.Values and protoreflect.Values.
The existing usage of Converter is somewhat confusing: The
internal/value package creates Converters for scalar types only, the
internal/impl package creates Converters for legacy messages and enums,
and the reflect/prototype package creates Converters for repeated fields.
Change the Converter type to an interface. The constructor for
Converter takes a FieldDescriptor and reflect.Type, and directly
handles conversions for all field types: Scalars, lists, maps, and
legacy types.
Move Converter into the internal/impl package, since that package
contains the necessary support for dealing with legacy messages and
enums. Drop the internal/value package.
Replace two uses of prototype.Extension with more focused
implementations, since the implementation is trivial with the
refactored Converter. Drop prototype.Extension for the moment since
it is now unused.

The messageState.mi field is atomically checked and set
in generated code to the *MessageInfo associated with that message.
However, the messageState type accesses the mi field without
any atomic loads, thus being a potential race.
We fix this by always calling a messageInfo method that performs
a atomic.LoadPointer on the *MessageInfo.
There is no performance effect from this change on x86 since
an atomic.LoadPointer is identical to a MOV instruction.
From an assembly perspective, there was no memory race previously.
However, the lack of an atomic.LoadPointer meant that the compiler
could in theory reorder the "normal" load to produce truly racy code.

We define MessageState, which is essentially an atomically set *MessageInfo.
By nesting this as the first field in every generated message, we can
implement the reflective methods on a *MessageState when obtained by
unsafe casting a concrete message pointer as a *MessageState.
The MessageInfo held by MessageState provides additional Go type information
to interpret the memory that comes after the contents of the MessageState.
Since we are nesting a MessageState in every message,
the memory use of every message instance grows by 8B.
On average, the body of ProtoReflect grows from 133B to 202B (+50%).
However, this is offset by XXX_Methods, which is 108B and
will be removed in a future CL. Taking into account the eventual removal
of XXX_Methods, this is a net reduction of 25%.
