Added API:
FieldDescriptor.IsExtension
FieldDescriptor.IsList
FieldDescriptor.MapKey
FieldDescriptor.MapValue
FieldDescriptor.ContainingOneof
FieldDescriptor.ContainingMessage
Deprecated API (to be removed in subsequent CL):
FieldDescriptor.Oneof
FieldDescriptor.Extendee
These methods help cleanup several common usage patterns.

Added methods:
Enum.Descriptor
Message.Descriptor
EnumType.Descriptor
MessageType.Descriptor
ExtensionType.Descriptor
Message.New
All functionality is switched over to use those methods instead of
implicitly relying on the fact that {Enum,Message}Type implicitly
implement the associated descriptor interface.
This CL does not yet remove {Enum,Message}.Type or prevent
{Enum,Message,Extension}Type from implementating a descriptor.
That is a subsequent CL.
The Message.New method is also added to replace functionality
that will be lost when the Type methods are removed.

The protobuf type system uses the word "descriptor" instead of "type".
We should avoid the "type" verbage when we aren't talking about Go types.
The old names are temporarily kept around for compatibility reasons.

Using an option instead of a separate method has several useful properties:
It makes it explicit whether the fast-path AppendMarshal is expected to use
cached sizes or not.
It properly plumbs the decision to use cached sizes through the call stack.
Consider the case where message A includes B includes C: If A and C support
cached sizes but B does not, we would like to use the size cache in all
messages which support it. Placing this decision in the options allows this
to work properly with no additional effort.
Placing this option in MarshalOptions permits users to request use of
existing cached sizes. This is a two-edged sword: There are places where
this ability can permit substantial efficiencies, but this is also an
exceedingly sharp-edged API. I believe that on balance the benefits
outweigh the risks, especially since the prerequisites for using
cached sizes are intuitively obvious. (You must have called Size, and
you must not have changed the message.)
This CL adds a Size method to MarshalOptions, rather than adding a SizeOptions
type. Future additions to MarshalOptions may affect the size of the encoded
output (e.g., an option to skip encoding unknown fields) and using the same
options for both Marshal and Size makes it easier to use a consistent
configuration for each.

Allow message implementations to provide optimized versions of standard
operations. Generated messages now include a ProtoReflectMethods method,
returning a protoiface.Methods struct containing pointers to assorted
optional functions.
The Methods struct also includes a Flags field indicating support for
optional features such as deterministic marshaling.
Implementation of the fast paths (and tests) will come in later CLs.
