Remove the Mutable methods from KnownFields, List, and Map, replacing
them with methods which return a new, empty message value without adding
that value to the collection.
The new API is simpler, since it clearly applies only to message values,
and more orthogonal, since it provides a way to create a value without
mutating the collection. This latter point is particularly useful in
map deserialization, where the key may be unknown at the time the value
is deserialized.
Drop the Mutable interface, since it is no longer necessary.

The following TODOs were addressed:
* Consistently collect all enums, messages, and extensions in a breadth-first order.
The practical affect of this is that the declaration order in a Go file may change.
This simplifies reflection generation, which relies on consistent ordering.
* Removal of placeholder declarations (e.g., "var _ = proto.Marshal") since
protogen is intelligent about including imports as necessary.
* Always generate a default variable or constant for explicit empty strings.
The practical effect of this is the addition of new declarations in some cases.
However, it simplifies our logic such that it matches the protobuf data model.
* Generate the registration statements in a consistent order.

In CL/152020, we checked in pre-generated versions of descriptor and plugin.
This CL makes it such that they are generated by protoc-gen-go.
We modify protoc-gen-go to avoid reflection support by default
since the binary size increase is still an issue to investigate.
Reflection support is temporarily enabled by setting a special
PROTOC_GEN_GO_ENABLE_REFLECT environment variable.
Reflection support is always enabled for descriptor and plugin.
Furthermore, we change descriptor to depend on the protoapi package
instead of the proto package. The reason we do not switch to protoapi
for all generated protos is because we still depend on v1 proto
for the table-driven InternalMessageInfo type. Dropping it from descriptor
is semantically correct, but does incur slight performance cost.
It does not seem appropriate to drop it for all generated messages.
We could move InternalMessageInfo to protoapi, but the logic behind that
is significant.

In order to generate descriptor.proto, the generated code would want to depend
on the prototype package to construct the reflection data structures.
However, this is a problem since descriptor itself is one of the dependencies
for prototype. To break this dependency, we do the following:
* Avoid using concrete *descriptorpb.XOptions messages in the public API, and
instead just use protoreflect.ProtoMessage. We do lose some type safety here
as a result.
* Use protobuf reflection to interpret the Options message.
* Split out NewFileFromDescriptorProto into a separate protodesc package since
constructing protobuf reflection from the descriptor proto obviously depends
on the descriptor protos themselves.
As part of this CL, we check in a pre-generated version of descriptor and plugin
that supports protobuf reflection natively and switchover all usages of those
protos to the new definitions. These files were generated by protoc-gen-go
from CL/150074, but hand-modified to remove dependencies on the v1 proto runtime.
